O fundo de investimento em direitos creditórios como alternativa de financiamento : 2001 - 2005

Abstract

This paper has the objective to investigate in which extension the securitization made through Receivables Investment Fund ( Fundo de Investimento em Direitos Creditórios FIDC ) could be considered as a viable alternative for enterprises to gather financing resources. It is essential for the development of any economy the existence of private financing mechanisms that allows companies to supply their financial needs in favorable conditions, either regarding costs or operations deadlines, and the securitization is one of these mechanisms. In order to support the proposed analysis, some contributions from authors that have contributed for the comprehension of the questions that involved financing operations will be presented, who are either aligned to post-Keynesian schools of thought, which emphasizes the Theory of Monetary Circuit and the Theory of Financial Fragility; or are disciples of new-Keynesianism, with particular relevance to the Theory of Credit Rationing. In order to achieve the initially proposed objective, it will be performed an empirical data collection concerning FIDC established in the Market over a period of time that ranges from 2002, the year in which the first fund was established, until the end of 2005, whose results will therefore be displayed with the assistance of descriptive statistics, and will summarize the main characteristics of the operations performed over this period of time, those which will be compared to the collected data regarding other existing financing mechanisms from Credit and Capital Markets
