Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to bring up some issues related to sugar production in Tucumán and its way of getting loans, at the beginning of the twentieth century. I analyse the case of the Bank of London and River Plate and its relationship whit industry. A long letter, written by the Tucuman branch manager and sent to his chief in Buenos Aires, is commented and a wide range of problems which are worthy to discuss on arise from it.
