Esta pesquisa trata das determinações críticas da atual relação entre a política habitacional brasileira, as incorporadoras nacionais de capital aberto e a reprodução do capital financeiro ligado ao setor imobiliário, com uma pesquisa focada na análise do Programa Minha Casa Minha Vida I e II (PMCMV) na metrópole de São Paulo. A história da política habitacional no Brasil, porém, mais claramente no BNH, evidencia que a confluência entre Estado, empresas privadas do setor imobiliário e capital não é a novidade do momento atual. A diferença reside, basicamente, no contexto histórico e econômico em cada um dos períodos, ou seja, em como a questão da habitação se presta à adaptação dos diferentes momentos de reprodução do capital e do trabalho pelos quais o país passou e vem passando. Se no momento do BNH/autoconstrução a questão da habitação estava inserida no contexto de uma economia industrial, e produzia casas ao ritmo de rotação do capital industrial, coube a nós, nesta pesquisa, investigar quais seriam os elementos da produção da habitação social, via PMCMV, ao ritmo do capital de uma economia financeirizada. / This research deals with the critical current determinations between the Brazilian housing policy, opened capital national developers and reproduction of finance capital on the real estate sector, from a research focused on the analysis of the Minha Casa Minha Vida I and II (PMCMV) in the metropolis of São Paulo. The history of housing policy in Brazil, better seen in the case of BNH, shows that the confluence between the state, private real estate companies and capital is not the novelty of the present moment. Basically, the difference lies in the historical and economic context from each period, showing how the issue of housing serves as an important means to the reproduction of capital and labor force throughout the different moments the country has been in. Once in the period of BNH, housing in Brazil was inserted in the context of an industrial economy, and therefore, it produced houses at the pace of the industrial capital rotation. In this research, though, we will investigate what are the elements of the social housing production, via PMCMV, under the rhythm of the capital of a financialized economy.

Mercado de leilão duplo permite que ofertas de compra e de venda possam ser feitas a qualquer momento e de forma contínua. As bolsas de Nova Iorque (NYSE) e de Chicago (CME) são exemplos deste tipo de leilão. Mercados artificiais são modelos que têm o objetivo de capturar as propriedades dos mercados reais para reproduzir e analisar a dinâmica do mercado através de experimentos computacionais. Assim como no mercado real, o modelo propõe que os agentes interagem entre si assincronamente em sessões de negociações contínuos. Estas últimas características do modelo são viabilizadas através do uso de técnicas e arcabouços tecnológicos que são atualmente utilizados nos mercados reais. Neste trabalho, são investigados os comportamentos do mercado artificial para diferentes grupos de agentes e parâmetros. Ao longo dos experimentos foram constatados que o volume de negociação e a volatilidade dos preços, por exemplo, são diretamente proporcionais ao orçamento dos agentes. Também foram identificados alguns fatos estilizados nas séries de preços geradas a partir do mercado artificial. / The purpose of this work is to model, implement and simulate a double auction artificial market using a multi-agent approach. Double auction markets allow offers to buy and sell to be made at any time and in a continuous fashion. The New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) are examples of exchanges that adopt this type of auction. Artificial markets are models that aim to capture the properties of real markets to reproduce and analyze the market dynamics through computational experiments. As in real markets, the model proposes that agents interact asynchronously in continuous trading sessions. These features are made possible by using modern techniques and technological frameworks currently used in real markets. In this work, we investigated the behavior of a artificial market using different groups of agents and parameters. Throughout the experiments it was identified that, for example, trading volume and price volatility are directly proportional to the agents' budget. Also, some stylized facts were identified on the price series generated by the artificial market

The objective of this diploma thesis is to process an analysis of financial supervision in the Czech Republic, Germany, Switzerland, Spain and Italy with special attention to banking industry which is the most influent part of the financial market in all countries. Besides this major analysis, the economic growth analysis for years 2000 to 2014 (2015) is made in every country. The very last step is a comparison of supervision systems and their connection to economic performance of countries. Conclusions bring the answer for my question: whether the economic condition (since 2000 until now) depends on the system of financial supervision in European countries. The theoretical part consists of chapters about the theory of national economy, financial markets, where there are basic theoretical concepts explained, market functions and market division. Last but not least, the theory of financial supervision is analyzed: what is the essence, legal framework, what is the supervision purpose and what are the goals of supervisors. Firstly, there should also be the theory of central banking but it does not make any sense to explain this theory here since central banks are not the main supervisor authorities of financial markets (except the Czech Republic, but also here the policies are separated). The practical part involves six subchapters, everyone is devoted to one state (the Czech Republic, Germany, Switzerland, Spain, Italy), the very last subchapter is about the comparison and analysis of results. In every state the history of financial market is processed together with institutional areas after 2000, legal framework and the analysis of supervision activity with special attention to capital, liquidity and resilience to shocks. European growth is analyzed according to GDP, inflation rate, unemployment, wage growth and GDP per capita in comparison with EU (28) and EA (19). The research brings the results that there is a connection between financial supervision and economic growth.
