The focus is on the relationship between these factors and how their variation in time can affect access to finance. The study uses a rich dataset of small, medium and large firms from 109 countries, mostly of them emerging economies, and of country related search friction indicators. Results show that banking outreach indicators and informational infrastructure are strongly associated with access to finance. The percentage of internet users and its variation are the most relevant of the informational variables, especially for small and medium enterprises. For large firms, the changes in fixed phone subscriptions and in the proportion of branches by population are the most relevant frictions. Results shed light on the already identifiable role of internet on financial inclusion of SMEs, and on the difference search frictions make in the access to finance depending on firm’s size. / Esta dissertação investiga empiricamente o papel das fricções de busca não relacionadas a preços no acesso a financiamento por empresas. O foco está na relação entre elas, bem como no efeito das mudanças nesses indicadores nos níveis de acesso a financiamento. O estudo usa um rico conjunto de dados de pequenas, médias e grandes empresas de 109 países, a maioria países em desenvolvimento, e de indicadores de fricção de busca por país. Os resultados mostram que os indicadores de alcance bancário e de infraestrutura informacional estão fortemente associados ao acesso a financiamento. A porcentagem de usuários da internet e a sua variação são as mais relevantes dentre as variáveis informacionais, especialmente para pequenas e médias empresas. Para as grandes empresas, as variações no número de assinaturas de telefonia fixa e na proporção de agências bancárias pela população são mais relevantes. Os resultados esclarecem o papel já identificável da internet na inclusão financeira de PMEs e a diferença que as fricções de busca fazem no acesso a financiamento dependendo do tamanho da empresa.

No. of bitstreams: 1 MPGI Thesis Mia Bernhardsen.pdf: 945739 bytes, checksum: 2dd70ca4ba46c57038cd5d7107f42d03 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2016-11-03 / Within the field of international business and entrepreneurship, the following project investigates an underexplored topic, namely the post- establishment performance of maturing Born Globals relative to younger Born Globals in Hispanic America. The scope is delimited to viewing performance as of sales growth in the manufacturing sector. A quantitative approach is applied, where firm- level secondary data from 14 Latin American countries is analyzed using multiple regression with interaction terms. The results illustrate that maturing Born Globals tend to have lower sales growth compared to younger Born Globals, while failing to detect that product innovation affect younger and maturing Born Globals differently. Access to finance as a moderator appear to be insignificant in the full sample, while the findings in the Peruvian context illustrate that the sales growth of maturing Peruvian Born Globals is more negatively affected by difficulties in obtaining finance relative to their younger counterparts. / No âmbito dos campos de conhecimento -negócios internacionais e empreendedorismo- o seguinte projeto visa investigar um tema pouco explorado: o desempenho pós-estabelecimento de Born Globals maduras em relação com o de empresas Born Globals jovens na América hispânica. O escopo é limitado ao crescimento de vendas na indústria manufatureira. Foi utilizada uma abordagem quantitativa com informacão de 14 países latino-americanos ao nivel secundário das empresas, a través de regressao multipla com interação de termos. Os resultados mostram que Born Globals em maturidade tendem a ter um crescimento de vendas menor em comparação com jovens born globals. No entanto, não foi detectado uma evolução diferente no que toca a inovação do produto entre as empresas anteriormente referidas. O acesso a financiamento como um moderador parecem ser insignificantes na amostra total, entretanto os resultados no contexto peruano ilustram que o crescimento das vendas dos Born Globals em maturidade é afetado de forma negativa por dificuldades na obtenção de financiamento em relação às contrapartes jovens.
