Instituições e desenvolvimento = críticas e alternativas à abordagem de variedades de capitalismo / Institutions and development : critiques and alternatives to the varieties of capitalism approach

Amitrano, Claudio Roberto, 1973- 08 February 2010 (has links)
Orientador: Antonio Carlos Macedo e Silva / Tese (doutorado) - Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Instituto de Economia / Made available in DSpace on 2018-08-16T14:44:02Z (GMT). No. of bitstreams: 1 Amitrano_ClaudioRoberto_D.pdf: 2319609 bytes, checksum: db18f6b0d07ae935c08c70c8141ac37f (MD5) Previous issue date: 2010 / Resumo: Nos últimos anos tem crescido o debate em torno do papel das instituições na performance econômica. Dentre as diversas vertentes que analisam este possível papel encontra-se a chamada abordagem de Variedades de Capitalismo (VoC), desenvolvida, sobretudo, a partir dos trabalhos de Peter Hall e David Soskice. Segundo os proponentes desta abordagem a questão relevante reside no fato de que não apenas as instituições influenciam o desempenho econômico, mas que o fazem por meio de uma forte complementaridade. A existência desta complementaridade tem como conseqüência uma forte inércia, de modo que as economias não apresentariam tendência de convergência ao longo do tempo, seja do ponto de vista de suas instituições, seja em termos de taxas de crescimento. O objetivo desta tese consiste em investigar a consistência teóricometodológica da noção de complementaridade institucional e sua relação com a mudança institucional e a performance econômica. A despeito da concordância com a tese da VoC, de que a divergência entre países se configura mais como regra do que como exceção, a hipótese principal deste trabalho é que existe uma incongruência na abordagem de Variedades de Capitalismo entre os conceitos de instituição, complementaridade e o modelo teórico que norteia a análise da performance econômica. Neste sentido, pretende-se ao longo do trabalho demonstrar que uma definição distinta de instituição, associada não só a padrões comportamentais, mas também à noção de modelos mentais de interpretação, é capaz de conferir maior robustez ao conceito de complementaridade. Esta noção requer que se leve em conta três elementos na definição de instituição: incerteza fundamental, racionalidade limitada e reciprocidade. Além disso, procurar-se-á demonstrar na tese que a relação entre complementaridade e performance econômica, quando mediada por um conceito de instituição adequado, se articula e confere sentido às noções de regime de demanda e de produtividade dos modelos pós-keynesianos de crescimento / Abstract: The debate surrounding the role of institutions in economic performance has grown in recent years. Among the various strands that analyze this possible role is the one called Varieties of Capitalism (VoC) approach, developed by Peter Hall and David Soskice. According to proponents of this approach the relevant question lies in the fact that not only institutions influence the economic performance, but they do so through a strong institutional complementarity. The existence of this complementarity implies a strong inertia, so that economies would not converge over time, neither from the point of view of its institutions, nor in terms of growth rates. The goal of this thesis is to investigate the theoretical-methodological consistency of the concept of institutional complementarity and its relationship with the institutional change and economic performance. Despite the agreement with the central thesis of VoC, that divergence between countries is much more a rule than an exception, the main hypothesis of this thesis is that there is an inconsistency in the Varieties of Capitalism approach between the concepts of institution, complementarity and the theoretical model that guided the analysis of economic performance. In this sense, we intend to demonstrate that a distinct definition of institution associated with, not only behavioral patterns, but also to the very notion of mental models of interpretation, is able to confer greater robustness to the concept of complementarity. This concept requires consideration about three elements in the definition of institution: fundamental uncertainty, bounded rationality and reciprocity. In addition, will be shown that the relationship between complementarity and economic performance, when mediated by an appropriate concept of institution relates and gives meaning to the concepts of demand and productivity regimes of post Keynesian models of growth / Doutorado / Teoria Economica / Doutor em Ciências Econômicas

A prática da controladoria nos maiores bancos que operam no Brasil à luz de uma estrutura conceitual básica de controladoria / Controllership practices adopted by major banks in Brazil in light of a basic conceptual structure of controllership

Bleise Rafael da Cruz 02 October 2009 (has links)
A melhoria de processos e práticas de gestão tornou-se essencial aos bancos que operam no Brasil, em presença da rápida evolução das atividades econômicas e do mercado de crédito. Diante disso, a Controlaria, bem como as informações por ela disponibilizadas, ganha mais espaço e importância nas instituições financeiras. Nesse sentido, este trabalho teve como principal objetivo verificar se, e em que medida, as práticas de Controladoria dos maiores bancos que operam no Brasil se refletem em uma Estrutura Conceitual Básica de Controladoria (ECBC). Dessa forma, realizou-se uma revisão da ECBC proposta por Borinelli (2006), com uma complementação das funções e atribuições da Controladoria voltadas para instituições financeiras, de acordo com literatura específica sobre esse assunto. Também foi realizada uma pesquisa empírica, a qual se utilizou de entrevistas e questionários, para investigar a aplicação da teoria na prática de Controladoria dos maiores bancos que operam no Brasil, bem como uma análise da aderência dessas práticas à ECBC. No que diz respeito aos achados deste trabalho, quanto às funções gerais da Controladoria atribuídas pela ECBC, verificou-se que as funções de Contabilidade Societária, Contabilidade Fiscal, Gestão das Informações e Atendimento a Usuários Externos, são funções típicas da área de Controladoria nos bancos pesquisados, o que está aderente às recomendações feitas pela ECBC. Entretanto, as funções de Riscos, Controles Internos e Finanças não foram apresentadas pelos bancos pesquisados como desempenhadas pela área de Controladoria, sendo essas inconsistentes com a sistematização da ECBC. Além das funções gerais, este trabalho, igualmente, investigou o papel da Controladoria em processos específicos nas instituições financeiras. As respostas obtidas mostraram que, para os processos de Orçamento, Mensuração, Análise e Controle de Custos, bem como no Planejamento Tributário, a Controladoria é considerada como a área responsável ou coordenadora. Porém, para os processos de Planejamento Estratégico, Análises de Ambientes e Viabilidades, Avaliação de Desempenho e Controle de Riscos, a Controladoria não é considerada como responsável ou coordenadora desses processos e, em muitos casos, apenas fornece apoio/suporte informacional, não aderindo à ECBC. Não obstante, optou-se, ainda, por estratificar os dados obtidos entre diferentes grupos de instituições, o que permitiu realizar uma comparação da prática de Controladoria entre os grupos distintos. O que se encontrou, nessas estratificações, foi que a prática de Controladoria de alguns grupos parece ser mais aderente aos elementos que integram a ECBC, do que em outros grupos, sem que, entretanto, algum grupo pudesse refletir, completamente, esses elementos na prática. Por fim, conclui-se que os resultados encontrados evidenciaram que as práticas de Controladoria dos maiores bancos que operam no Brasil refletem, parcialmente, os elementos que integram uma Estrutura Conceitual Básica de Controladoria. / Improving management practices and processes has become an essential need for banks operating in Brazil, due to the fast-paced evolution of the economic activities and the credit market. In this context, Controllership, as well as the information it provides, has gained increased importance and prominence within financial institutions. In this sense, the main goal of this paper is to verify if and to what extent Controllership practices adopted by major banks in Brazil reflect a Basic Conceptual Structure of Controllership (Estrutura Conceitual Básica de Controladoria - ECBC). To that end, a revision of the ECBC proposed by Borinelli (2006) was carried out, including Controllership functions and duties aimed at financial institutions, as per the specific literature on this topic. An empirical research was also conducted through interviews and questionnaires in order to investigate and analyze how Controllership practices in major banks with operations in Brazil reflect the theory and adhere to the ECBC. The findings of this paper regarding general Controllership functions laid out by the ECBC reveal that Corporate Accounting, Tax Accounting, Information Management and External User Service are typical activities for the Controllership area in the banks investigated, which complies with the ECBC recommendations. On the other hand, functions regarding Risks, Internal Controls and Finances were found not to integrate the activities performed by the Controllership area in the banks investigated, which is inconsistent with the concepts systematized under the ECBC. In addition to the general functions, this paper also investigates the role Controllership plays in specific processes within financial institutions. The answers given reveal that Controllership is considered to be the area that leads and coordinates processes as Budgeting, Measurement, Costs Analysis and Control, as well as Tax Planning. However, Controllership is not considered to be the area that leads and coordinates processes regarding Strategic Planning, Environment and Viability Analyses, Performance Assessment and Risk Control, simply providing information support in many cases and thereby not adhering to the ECBC. Furthermore, there was an attempt to stratify the data obtained into different groups of institutions, which enabled a comparison of the Controllership practices across the groups. These categories showed that the Controllership practices of some groups seem to be more consistent with the ECBC elements than others, which does not indicate that any group could fully reflect these elements in practice. Finally, the results support the conclusion that Controllership practices in major banks operating in Brazil partially reflect the elements that comprise the Basic Conceptual Structure of Controllership.

Finansiële adviesdienste deur die eiendomsagent in die woonhuismark : 'n bedryfsekonomiese ondersoek

Swart, Nico Johannes 11 February 2015 (has links)
M.Com. / The purpose of this study is to consider the financial advice an estate agent should give the purchaser and seller of a house in order to allow the parties to have a clear understanding of the financial implications of the sale. Entering into an agreement of sale in respect of personal property, with specific reference to housing, has to be one of the biggest single investments of a person's life. Should a person make such a decision without having sufficient advice concerning the financial implications, making a mistake could have far-reaching results. That is why it is in the best interests of the country that both parties should receive comprehensive financial advice. Not all estate agents are able to provide professional financial advice to purchasers and sellers of houses. The main reason for this is insufficient agent training. In addition to this, agents are allowed to close deals between purchasers and sellers for a year before writing an examination according to law. Purchasers are generally uninformed about sale transactions and what is more, usually respond to advertisements encouraging them to purchase a home of their own at low monthly instalments. The hidden cost items are not always revealed to the parties to a sale agreement. An estate agent is not an "agent" in the true juridical sense of the word,because he cannot close a deal on behalf of his principal (who instructs him).
