Resumo: Collective actions are present in several organizational structures, among them credit union. This structure has been showing continuous growth rates in Brazil, and has increased its participation in the National Financial System. Credit union has played an important role in the economic and social spheres, emphasizing the role of agent that promotes regional development. Due to this situation, it should be pointed out that according to the literature, if, on the one hand, the growth of credit cooperatives has favored economic results, on the other hand it has generated challenges for the social sphere, due to the greater difficulty in organizing and motivating the credit union governance and the sustainability of this structure. As of 2011, Sicredi Alliance PR/SP, divided its cooperative base into 38 nuclei, so that the large group of cooperatives was divided into smaller groups. Such a procedure is known by Collective Action Theory as the creation of federative groups, maintaining the economic potential of a large group, without, however, losing the characteristics and benefits of small groups. In this sense, the objective of this research is to analyze the implications of group size on the collective performance of Sicredi Aliança PR/SP. The methodology used was the descriptive research, a method that allows the description of the characteristics of a given population or phenomenon, or the establishment of relations between the analyzed variables. The primary data were collected through the application of forms to the cooperative and observation of the assemblies; Already the secondary ones were collected in management reports and minutes of the assemblies. Data analysis was performed using Excel software and SPSS Statistic 24.0, through descriptive statistics and cross-tables, with quantitative-qualitative approach. It was possible to identify the positive influence of federative groups on the collective performance of the credit union under study. Specifically, it was observed that leftovers and the number of credit union increased significantly after the implementation of the new governance model. On the social side, it was also possible to verify a greater participation in assemblies and also the beginning of a credit union education program, which proved to be fundamental for the sustainability of the collective action under study. However, it has been identified that groups are still large and that reducing the size of the group without the accompaniment of cooperative education is not enough.
