Frågeställning: Hur ser bankernas kreditbedömning för små och medelstora företag ut och hur kommer den att förändras i och med införandet av de nya regelverken K2 och K3? Hur resonerar banker vid kreditbedömning när företag redovisar enligt K2 och K3?Vill bankerna styra åt en viss tillämpning eller önskar de rapportering på basis av den löpande bokföringen? Syfte: Syftet med detta examensarbete är att undersöka och analysera bankers kreditbedömning för små och medelstora företag, samt vilken påverkan kreditbedömningen kommer få efter införandet av de nya redovisningsregelverken. Metod: Studien hade en deduktiv forskningsansats och metoden var kvalitativ. Semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes som datainsamlingsmetod. Empirin analyserades med hjälp av den referensram som blev insamlad under en litteraturstudie och en artikelsökning. Slutsats: Studien visade att kreditbedömningens utgångspunkt är väldigt lika för de undersökta bankerna. Bankernas kreditbedömning har ännu inte påverkats av de nya regelverken K2 och K3 men det kan ändras i framtiden. Bankerna vill framförallt ha tillräckligt med underlag från företagen så att de kan göra en bra kreditbedömning. / Research questions: How does the banks credit assessment for SMEs look like and how will it change with the introduction of the new regulations K2 and K3? How do banks reason at credit assessment when companies report according to K2 and K3? Would banks steer to a particular application or do they wish to get reports on the basis of the daily accounting? Purpose: The purpose of this study is to investigate and analyze banks’ credit assessment for small and medium-sized enterprises, as well as the impact of credit assessment due to the new accounting regulations. Method: The study had a deductive research approach and the methodology was qualitative. Semi-structured interviews were carried out as a data collection method. The empirical data were analyzed using the reference frame which was collected in a literature search and an article search. Conclusion: The study outcome shows that the credit assessment starting point is very alike from the examined banks. The banks credit assessment process has not been affected due to introduction of the new regulations K2 and K3 although it can change in future context. The banks want, above all, to have enough material from the companies so that they can make a good credit assessment.

This thesis studies the Chinese banks’ credit risk assessment using the Post Keynesian approach. We argue that bank loans are the major financial sources in emerging economies and it is uncertainty, an unquantifiable risk, rather than asymmetric information about quantifiable risk, as held by the mainstream approach, which is most important for the risk attached to credit loans, and this uncertainty is particularly important in China. With the universal existence of uncertainty, borrowers and lenders have to make decisions based on convention and experience. With regard to the nature of decision-making, this implies the importance of qualitative methods rather than quantitative methods. The current striking problem in Chinese banking is the large amount of Non-Performing Loans (NPLs) and this research aims to address the NPLs through improving credit risk management. Rather than the previous literature where Western models are introduced into China directly or with minor modification, this work advocates building on China’s conventional domestic methods to deal with uncertainty. We briefly review the background of the Chinese banking history with an evolutionary view and examine Chinese conventions in the development of the credit market. Based on an overview of this history, it is argued that Soft Budget Constraints (SBC) and the underdeveloped risk-assessing mechanism contributed to the accumulation of NPLs. Informed by Western models and experience, we have made several suggestions about rebuilding the Chinese convention of credit risk assessment, based on an analysis of publications and interviews with Chinese bankers. We also suggest some further development of the Asset Management Companies (AMCs) which are used to dispose of the NPLs.

This study uses concurrent verbal protocol analysis to examine the decision processes of lenders as they evaluate the financial information of a loan applicant. Of specific interest is the lenders' use of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards Board No. 95 (FAS 95), Statement of Cash Flows, in that decision process.

Crowdfunding as it looks today has had rapid growth in popularity as a financing alternative for start-ups. By seeking capital from a large number of private investors who will invest a smaller amount of money, the financing market has changed and access to capital has increased. This study has made a comparison between the different funding options. The aim of this study is to compare the development of companies financed by crowdfunding against companies traditionally financed to evaluate which approach is the strongest. Furthermore, the authors intend to identify risks with crowdfunding and to observe trends. The study has been conducted through a quantitative method with a deductive approach where the data is collected mostly from the companies annual reports. The result of the study shows that the companies that are traditionally financed have a higher level of sales and sales growth. One trend that the study has shown is that after the company's first two years, sales, sales growth and operating profit from companies financed through crowdfunding begin to decline.

This fact seems to be strongly correlated with high spreads and interest rate on bank loans charged by the Brazilian banking sector. The orthodox theory is the one that most deeply study this topic and point to five main reasons as determinants of different credit costs between countries: competition in the banking sector; macroeconomic environment; taxation, reserves requirement and mandated lending; and availability of information about borrowers. Assessing Brazil in the indicated items, there is notable improvement in almost all factors during de 2000s, however, despite of the cutbacks in interest rates and spreads, we can explain only partially the reduction observed and, in addiction, we note that the credit costs in Brazil are still high comparing to other countries. We understand that SELIC may explain the high level of Brazilian credit costs, because beyond affect directly the costs of funding, it represents a high cost of opportunity of offering credit, since SELIC remunerate part of Brazilian treasury bills, which become profitable, low risk and high liquidity assets / Apesar de ser um importante fator para o desenvolvimento das economias por propiciar liquidez ao sistema e financiar consumo e projetos de investimento, o mercado de crédito é pouco desenvolvido no Brasil quando comparado com as principais economias do mundo. Este fato parece ter forte correlação com os elevados spreads e taxas de juros praticadas pelo setor bancário brasileiro. A teoria ortodoxa convencional trata do tema e aponta para cinco principais fatores como determinantes das diferenças de custos de crédito entre os países: grau de competição do setor bancário; ambiente macroeconômico; tributação, requerimento de reservas e empréstimos subsidiados; e disponibilidade de informações sobre os mutuários. Ao avaliar o Brasil nos itens indicados, notamos sensível melhora em praticamente todos os fatores durante os anos 2000, entretanto, apesar das reduções das taxas de juros e spreads, consegue-se explicar apenas parte da queda verificada e, além disso, notase que os custos de crédito no Brasil ainda são elevados em relação a outros países. Entendemos que a taxa SELIC possa ser a explicação para os patamares ainda elevados dos custos de financiamento no Brasil, pois, além de influenciar diretamente os custos de captação, ela representa, para o setor bancário, um alto custo de oportunidade de se ofertar crédito por ser base para remuneração de parte dos títulos da dívida do governo brasileiro, tornando-os ativos rentáveis, de baixo risco e alta liquidez

No. of bitstreams: 1 Fernanda Maria Nogueira Lima.pdf: 788057 bytes, checksum: 838df4778a4b2acc04363ac858268d61 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2018-03-05 / The purpose of this study was to analyze the granting of microcredit in Brazil in the period 1995-2013 comparing the Brazilian experience with the experience of Bangladesh. In the last decades it has been observed a substantial advance in the financial market with the development of several tools that contribute to the increment of the current economic scenario. This evolution, over time, has promoted a national economic development, besides contributing to the reduction of unemployment and informality in companies. However, there is still a large gap between the low-income population and the tools available, as it is possible to observe that the high cost of credit operations for the population, mainly due to the lack of real guarantees, costs of these operations, resulting in an obstacle to obtaining credit in Brazil and consequently the financial inclusion of this population. Banking is one of the possible mechanisms to insert the low income population in the banking system and to promote a regulatory form that allows these people to obtain access to a subsidized credit, enabling entrepreneurship, the release of resources for investment and working capital, resulting in in obtaining credit with sustainability and contributing to the financial inclusion and citizenship of the most disadvantaged classes. In the course of this endeavor, the most successful experience, both in practical terms and in theoretical terms, is the case of Bangladesh, which served as a scope to verify why it persisted for several periods and economic policies and even with several governments in different periods, such as the 1995-2013 period, it was noted that the intentions were frustrated and did not make significant progress. Based on the Microcredit Revolution, the successful case of Bangladesh and the Brazilian experience were compared, since they are countries with similar initiatives of financial inclusion, public services of insufficient quality and with still anachronistic problems in socioeconomic indicators. It is concluded that despite being in the process of improvement, it has not yet promoted the social inclusion expected due to the high costs. Therefore, the results are heterogeneous, where some segments show improvement, and others, such as those of extreme poverty, microcredit further aggravates the situation, promoting inability to pay and consequent indebtedness / O presente estudo teve por objetivo analisar a concessão de microcrédito no Brasil no período 1995-2013 comparando a experiência brasileira com a experiência de Bangladesh. Nas últimas décadas constatou-se um avanço substancial no mercado financeiro com o desenvolvimento de várias ferramentas que contribuem para o incremento do cenário econômico atual. Tal evolução, ao longo do tempo, promoveu um desenvolvimento econômico nacional, além de contribuir para a redução do desemprego e da informalidade nas empresas. Contudo, tem-se ainda uma grande lacuna entre a população de baixa renda e as ferramentas disponíveis, uma vez que é possível observar que o alto custo das operações de crédito para a população, principalmente devido à falta de garantias reais, eleva ainda mais os custos das referidas operações, resultando em um entrave de obtenção do crédito no Brasil e consequentemente a inclusão financeira desta população. A bancarização é um dos mecanismos possíveis para inserir a população de baixa renda no sistema bancário e promover uma forma regulamentar que permita que estas pessoas obtenham acesso a um crédito subsidiado, possibilitando o empreendedorismo, a liberação de recursos para investimento e capital de giro, resultando na obtenção de crédito com sustentabilidade e contribuindo para a inclusão financeira e cidadania das classes mais desfavorecidas. No decorrer desta empreitada, a experiência mais bem-sucedida, tanto em termos práticos quanto em termos teóricos, é o caso de Bangladesh, que serviu de escopo para verificar o porquê de mesmo persistindo por vários períodos e políticas econômicas e mesmo com vários governos em períodos distintos, como o caso do período 1995-2013, percebeu-se que as intenções foram frustradas e não obtiveram progressos significativos. Com base na Revolução do Microcrédito fez-se a comparação do caso bem-sucedido de Bangladesh e a experiência brasileira, por se tratar de países com iniciativas semelhantes de inclusão financeira, serviços públicos de qualidade insuficientes e com problemas ainda anacrônicos nos indicadores socioeconômicos. Conclui-se que apesar de estar em processo de melhoria, ainda não promoveu a inclusão social esperada devido aos altos custos. Logo, os resultados são heterogêneos, onde alguns segmentos apresentam melhorias, e outros, como aqueles de extrema pobreza, o microcrédito agrava ainda mais a situação, promovendo a incapacidade de pagamento e consequente endividamento

In order to resolve whether to enter into a contract it is necessary that the individual understands its provisions. No sooner, will one realize difficulties that may be faced by the elderly and illiterate consumer, who do not have the means to know and understand, by himself, the contents of the financial contract. Consumerism law requires, from the supplier, loyalty and duty to provide all information requested by the consumer as a result of the rules listed in Articles 46, 52, I to V, and 54, § 3, of the Consumer Protection Code, as well as the principle of good- faith described in articles 4 and 51, IV, of the same law. Rule and principle are complementary therein, but day-to-day reality of the elderly and illiterate shows that the effectiveness of these rules is greatly compromised. Lack of complete information to the elderly and illiterate consumer compromises the free exercise of their expression of will, since it is not backed by the essential elements laid down by the contract. The focus of this work lies in the fact of asserting the necessity of the applicant or consignor to understand the clauses that he/she will be subject to. In other words, there is a need for an element that qualifies at will, making it a conscious one. This may be accomplished through the aid of a body constitutionally devised to defend the rights, with inalienable social and individual relevance. The Public Ministry, an entity constitutionally created to defend fundamental rights, has the duty to promote preventive measures to safeguard the interests of elderly and illiterate consumers. Prevent the occurrence of disputes and ensure the elderly and illiterate that his/her will is free is responsibility to be undertaken by the Public Ministry. This function of preventing conflicts and preserving the will of elderly and illiterate consumers can be widely exercised by signing terms of adjustment of conduct by Public Ministry and the banks, but also thorough information given to the elderly and illiterate consumers by the parquet member, about the content of the contract / A autonomia privada nos contratos de empréstimo pessoais fica restrita ao aderente decidir entre sujeitar-se ou não às condições impostas por meio das cláusulas contratuais pré-redigidas pelas instituições financeiras. Ocorre que para decidir entre realizar ou não um contrato é necessário que o sujeito compreenda suas cláusulas. Logo se percebe a dificuldade enfrentada pelo consumidor idoso e analfabeto, que não dispõe de meios para, sozinho, conhecer e entender o conteúdo do contrato financeiro. A legislação consumerista exige do fornecedor lealdade e dever de prestar todas as informações solicitadas pelo consumidor como decorrência das regras elencadas nos artigos 46, 52, I a V e 54, §3º, todos do Código de Defesa do Consumidor e do princípio da boa-fé descrito nos artigos 4º e 51, IV, do mesmo diploma legal. Regra e princípio aqui se completam, mas a realidade do dia a dia a que o idoso e analfabeto é submetido mostra que a eficácia dessas regras está bastante comprometida. A ausência de informação completa ao consumidor idoso analfabeto compromete o livre exercício de sua manifestação de vontade, uma vez que não é lastreada nos elementos essenciais que circundam o contrato. O ponto central deste trabalho está no fato de se perquirir sobre a necessidade do aderente ou consignante compreender as cláusulas que o sujeitarão, isto é, na exigência de um elemento que qualifique a vontade, tornando-a um querer consciente, mediante o auxílio de um órgão pensado constitucionalmente para defender os direitos com relevância social e individuais indisponíveis. O Ministério Público, entidade constitucionalmente criada para defender os direitos fundamentais, tem a atribuição de promover ações preventivas no sentido de salvaguardar os interesses do consumidor idoso e analfabeto. Prevenir a ocorrência dos litígios e garantir ao idoso e analfabeto que sua vontade seja livre é atribuição a ser assumida pelo Ministério Público. Essa função preventiva de conflitos e de preservação da vontade do consumidor idoso e analfabeto pode ser amplamente exercida por meio de assinatura dos termos de ajustamento de conduta pelo Ministério Público e as entidades bancárias, mas também com a ampla informação, pelo membro do parquet, do consumidor idoso e analfabeto sobre o conteúdo do contrato
