Founded in 1775, Nacional Monte de Piedad is the oldest and one of the largest pawn institutions in the world. As a Private Assistance Institution (I.A.P.), it operates on a non-profit basis with a mission to help people solve their liquidity needs through accessible pawn loans, using personal valuables as collateral. Beyond its core pawnbroking services, the institution also engages in the retail sale of unredeemed items and invests its operational surpluses back into social, health, and educational projects across Mexico, fulfilling its philanthropic mandate.
