La creación de empresas en México ha resultado clave para el desarrollo del país; representando las Micro Pequeñas y Medianas Empresas (MiPYME´s) el 99.8% del total de las empresas, generando 72% del empleo y aportando 52% al Producto Interno Bruto (PIB), de este modo, algunas instituciones públicas y privadas han impulsado diversas medidas de apoyo para facilitar, el a veces interminable proceso de creación y sostenimiento de dichas empresas; lo que resulta una paradoja es que dos de los obstáculos más grandes a los cuales se enfrentan estas organizaciones en sus inicios, son los requerimientos en el proceso de creación de empresas (burocracia) y la falta de financiamiento. En este trabajo se abordará el estudio de algunas instituciones que se dedican a apoyar a los emprendedores para la creación de sus empresas, tomaremos como base dos variables; el procedimiento de creación de empresas y el acceso al crédito bancario; apoyados por la teoría institucional de North, haciendo un estudio exploratorio del contexto mexicano, consultaremos el proyecto del Doing Business para conocer el estado del arte de la tramitología para emprender negocios en México, con la intención de verificar con datos duros, si es que las variables mencionadas representan dos de los obstáculos más grandes para el emprendimiento en México.
