Abstract

This study analyses the structure of television in Ecuador by reviewing 50 limited companies, 25 of which are microenterprises, 14 small enterprises, 9 medium-size enterprises an 2 large enterprises. Microenterprises are in a dominant position, and stock companies (35) prevail over limited liability companies (15). The data from every microenterprise was gathered, tabulated and fixed to stablish like-for-like comparisons of the financial situation of each category and a broad picture for the years 2012–13. The results point out that the financial situation of television companies in Ecuador is uneven and weak.
