This paper sets out to analyze gender behavior in the Brazilian labor market as a result of the economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. It focuses on job destruction and creation during the lockdown and implementation of social distancing throughout 2020. To do so, it uses the New General Register of Employed and Unemployed (NCAGED) and applies the Oaxaca-Blinder decomposition to net male and female job destruction at municipal level, in the 18 to 40 age group. In addition, inequality for every month of 2020, in terms of the pre- and post-pandemic context was verified. It was found that the initial months affected all formal workers but had an even greater effect on women. Another relevant contribution of this study is its inequality decomposition, where the findings show that it is largely due to structural effects.
O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar se as políticas macroprudenciais/concorrenciais editadas entre 2009 e 2016 afetaram direta ou indiretamente a conduta concorrencial das instituições financeiras. Para isso, utilizou-se a estatística H de Panzar e Rosse. Os dados foram constituídos por um painel com 44 instituições bancárias que atuaram no Brasil no período. Os resultados indicaram que a conduta das instituições financeiras foi, entre 2009 e 2013, de um monopólio, passando a uma conduta neutra entre 2014 e 2015 e, a partir de então, uma concorrência monopolística. Concluiu-se que a política de portabilidade do crédito (editada em dezembro de 2013) foi a que teve impacto de neutralidade sobre a competição das instituições financeiras, enquanto que a exigibilidade de Basileia III a partir de 2015 efetivou a conduta competitiva do setor.
