Using a sample of 96,417 Portuguese SMEs from the non-financial sector for the period 2010–2019, we found that trade credit plays an important role in firms' financing policies. Firms with better access to the credit market act as financial intermediaries and grant financing to firms that have difficulty accessing credit. Moreover, the use of trade credit seems to be a substitute for bank financing. We also found that firms use trade credit as a marketing tool to increase their sales. Finally, we found a slump in credit granted to customers after the 2008 financial crisis, which seems to mimic the contraction in aggregate bank credit.","PeriodicalId":33953,"journal":{"name":"Notas Economicas","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44663132","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Intangible assets can increase the productivity of labor and productive factors. Although no consensus has been reached on standard principles and uniform methods for measuring intangible assets, the attempts of various investigators, such as those proposed in this research, pave the way for the development of a framework. To achieve this objective, a Cobb-Douglas production function was estimated at the firm level, where intangible capital is assumed as a productive factor. To perform a sectoral analysis, the model was estimated by activity sector. We also estimated the evolution of the contribution of intangible capital in two distinct periods 2010-14 (recession) and 2015-19 (recovery). The results obtained were to some extent expected, confirming the evidence of the positive effect of intangible assets on productivity. The intangible effect is greater in the sectors of Manufacturing and Construction, and inside the Manufacturing sector, the Textile industry is where the effect is larger. For the Trade and Business Services sector the effect is negative or null. Although intangible capital has a strong influence at the aggregate level, it has gradually lost its relevance. This result is understandable, given the low and decreasing levels of intangible investment and the continuous decrease in intangible capital during the decade.","PeriodicalId":33953,"journal":{"name":"Notas Economicas","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43738381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper adds to that discussion by developing a policy simulation exercise in which REDD credits can be traded in an international carbon market using a recursive dynamic computable general equilibrium model. The model was extended to incorporate abatement cost curves of avoided deforestation from a partial equilibrium study, and to account for the corresponding induced effects on land and timber markets. We conclude that REDD may significantly reduce policy costs. A large number of REDD credits entering the carbon market would allow regions pertaining to the climate policy agreement to systematically emit above their targets. These results confirm that policy design may require limits to the use of REDD credits along with the creation of long-term incentives to promote a greener economy. Finally, when international competitiveness effects are taken into account, we show that the use of REDD as a means to foster developing countries’ participation in climate policy may not be sufficient.","PeriodicalId":33953,"journal":{"name":"Notas Economicas","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43459065","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Avaliação de Políticas Sustentáveis 可持续政策评估

Consequently, sustainability issues are multidimensional in nature and feature a high degree of conflict, uncertainty and complexity. Social multi-criteria evaluation (SMCE) has been explicitly designed for public policies; it builds on formal modelling techniques whose main achievement is the fact that the use of different evaluation criteria translates directly into plurality of values and dimensions underpinning a policy process. SMCE aims at being inter/multi-disciplinary (with respect to the technical team), participatory (with respect to the community) and transparent. SMCE can help deal with three different types of sustainability-related policy issues: 1) epistemological uncertainty (human representation of a given policy problem necessarily reflects perceptions, values and interests of those structuring the problem); 2) complexity (the existence of different levels and scales at which a hierarchical system can be analyzed implies the unavoidable existence of non-equivalent descriptions of it both in space and time); and 3) mathematical manipulation rules of relevant information (compensability versus non-compensability, preference modelling of intensities of preference, mixed information on criterion scores, weights as trade-offs versus weights as importance coefficients, choice of a proper ranking algorithm). This paper focuses on the these three issues and provides an overview of the SMCE approaches to them.","PeriodicalId":33953,"journal":{"name":"Notas Economicas","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-07-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42694304","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study examines whether suppliers, such as banks, engage in “evergreen” lending to zombie firms and whether their behavior differs from that of banks. We found that highly productive, larger and younger firms are less likely to become zombie firms. The behavior of suppliers is, in fact, different from that of banks; they are indeed more cautious in lending to zombie firms. Unlike suppliers, banks seem to have contributed to the rise of resource misallocation, a key explanation for the productivity slowdown in the new century.","PeriodicalId":33953,"journal":{"name":"Notas Economicas","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47764377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To this end, a database extracted from the Community Innovation Survey (CIS) and the System of Business Accounts (SCIE) was used.

A Recursive Bivariate Probit Model (RPBM) was used for making estimates. When analyzing the relationship between innovation and financial constraints, the results reveal a negative relationship between the two, confirming that firms that are financially constrained are more limited in their investments in R&D, and innovation is less accessible to them. The severity of the effects of financial constraints is heterogeneous across economic activities, strongly affecting innovative industries, while service industries appear to be the least affected. It was also observed that larger companies are better able to innovate. There was a positive relationship between innovation and the variables sales and exports, indicating that innovation will positively affect the financial results of companies.","PeriodicalId":33953,"journal":{"name":"Notas Economicas","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46394982","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we claim that economic theory may help to understand some of these changing patterns. It is argued that liberalization in the Jordanian economy resulted in important changes in the Jordanian social contract regarding gender roles, school enrollment, labor participation, marriage, and fertility. In particular, three apparently disconnected contemporaneous developments may be interrelated: the increase in women's marriage age, the growth of young single women's participation in the labor market, and the increase in the young male unemployment rate. This process stopped in the late 2000s, both due to exogenous (the Great Recession after 2008 and the Syrian civil war in 2011) and endogenous (existing attitudes towards working women) reasons. We argue that economic conditions may play a role as the driving forces for social transformation, and opens a window for women's opportunities and empowerness.","PeriodicalId":33953,"journal":{"name":"Notas Economicas","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47425783","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
