Sumario:Two distinct experiences in the field of microfinance promoted by Banco do Nordeste do Brasil are evaluated here: (1) Crediamigo Program, oriented productive urban microcredit; and (2) Support Program for Solidary Productive Projects (PAPPS), under the assumptions of the solidarity economy. Therefore, the ethnographic approach is presented as an important methodology in the development of evaluation processes. It is pointed to the reach of subjects, relatively, in the same social group, but who present themselves as different audiences and receive attention, impacts and disparate investments on their lives and trajectories, according to the programs in which they are inserted. The results map how these two policies dialogue while differing and distancing themselves in focus and weight given the economic, social and political dimensions in the Brazilian Northeast. By way of conclusion, the logic followed by the programs is evident; the impacts on the lives of those reached; and what qualities, limits and possibilities of these programs.
