A forma como as empresas definem sua estrutura de capital traz impactos para o seu desempenho financeiro. Dentre as possibilidades para financiamento se encontra a securitização, que embora seja um tema discutido no meio acadêmico, pouca atenção tem sido dada para sua relação com o desempenho empresarial (RIACHI et al., 2015). No Brasil, um dos setores que mais fazem uso deste tipo de instrumento é o setor de construção civil. Desta forma, este trabalho teve por objetivo analisar os determinantes das estratégias de securitização utilizadas pelas empresas do setor de construção civil e os impactos no seu desempenho econômico e financeiro. A pesquisa utilizou uma abordagem quantitativa e fez uso do método descritivo, a amostra foi composta por 15 empresas do setor, o estudo abordou o período de 2007 a 2015 e foi realizado com a utilização da técnica de análise de regressão com dados em painel balanceado. A principal variável explicativa determinante do nível de securitização foi o custo da dívida, reforçando a hipótese de que empresas com maior custo de dívida tendem utilizar de forma mais intensa a securitização. Já em relação ao desempenho, foi constatado que o nível de securitização influencia o indicador Preço/Lucro, desta maneira, esta estratégia pode contribuir para a criação de valor.
Working capital management and profitability: study about the optimal point of investment in Brazilian companies Within the working capital management literature, there is a debate about how the relationship between investment level and corporate profitability occurs. The more traditional strand defends the existence of a trade-off between liquidity and profitability, thus the lower level of investment leads to a better result for the firm. Studies are also found that support the view that increased investment in short-term assets can improve performance, mainly due to greater sales incentives, derivative to greater inventories and availability of credit for customers. In addition to these two views, there is a current that advocates an inverted U-relationship for working capital and profitability, thus, the highest profitability is achieved by balancing the benefits and costs of current assets and liabilities, the so-called optimum point of investment in working capital. This study sought to test the existence of the optimum point using two indicators from the Fleuriet Model, the Working Capital Requirements and the Treasury Balance, in a sample of 324 Brazilian nonfinancial companies with data from the period between 2011 and 2019. Using a polynomial regression model with panel data, an inverted U relationship between the profitability of companies and the level of working capital investment was observed. The results, in addition to providing evidence for the existence of the optimum point, allow for a more complete view on working capital management, since the indicators used in this research, unlike previous studies, comprise all the current assets and liabilities accounts.
