O objetivo deste trabalho consistiu em estimar os efeitos do Covid-19 sobre a estrutura produtiva do estado do Rio de Janeiro. Para tanto, foi utilizado o método de insumo-produto considerando três cenários possíveis de acordo com a eficácia do isolamento social para conter o contágio. Os resultados revelaram que a redução do PIB fluminense será de 4,16% a 5,02%, sendo comércio e serviços os setores mais impactados. Para amenizar estes resultados negativos sobre a economia, a indústria extrativa fluminense terá um crescimento estimado de 1,15% a 2,25% em 2020. Torna-se urgente uma política fiscal expansionista liderada pelo governo federal.

A measure of the propensity to gamble in casinos constructed without any asset price data provides relevant information for asset pricing. This measure of risk appetite improves the fit of conditional asset pricing models such as the conditional CAPM, explains crosssectional differences in future returns for portfolios sorted on various characteristics, and helps forecast market and portfolio excess returns. The relationship between risk appetite and asset prices appears to be mainly explained by simultaneous changes in risk and risk premia.

The purpose of the article was to measure the impacts caused by Ischemic Heart Diseases (IHD) on Brazilian GDP in 2006 and 2014. The effects of IHD were assessed by applying shocks applied to 56 sectors, in current values of the impact on income. The method used included information on the Disability Adjusted Life Years (DALY), developed by the World Health Organization (WHO) through the study of Global Illness Burden; and Leontief Inverse. The results showed that the direct impacts of the IHD on GDP in 2006 were approximately US$ 166 million and US$ 362 million in 2014, and direct and indirect impacts were US$ 800 million in 2006 and US$ 1.3 billion in 2014. The total economic impact exceeded those of US$ 919 million in 2006 and US$ 1.7 billion in 2014.

The objective of this work was to analyze the level of economic integration between the BRIC economies. From the WIOD input-output tables, a BRIC matrix was built which, using the hypothetical extraction method in Input-Output, made it possible to assess the impacts that each group economy generates on the others and the rest of the world. As a result, it was observed at first that the BRIC group had a greater degree of economic integration, but that this integration later lost strength due to the increase in the relationship of these countries with economies outside the group.
