Os resultados encontrados apresentam evidencias de que o PBF possui efeito de aumentar a violencia contra a mulher. Ademais, aquelas domiciliadas no meio rural, com baixa escolaridade e com rendimentos relativamente menores aos do conjuge sao as que merecem maior atencao, uma vez que este grupo possui maior risco de sofrer violencia.

Using monthly data, we estimated the effects of volatility and exchange rate misalignments on the probability of intervention. Our results indicate that, as formally stated by the Brazilian Central Bank, foreign interventions have reacted to excess volatility in the exchange market, but we also find strong evidence that interventions have in fact aimed at curbing exchange rate misalignments. We find, moreover, that interventions are affected more strongly by episodes of devaluations of the local currency, vis-a-vis episodes of overvaluation, indicating asymmetric behavior of the Brazilian Central Bank.","PeriodicalId":43766,"journal":{"name":"Estudios De Economia","volume":"48 1","pages":"909-936"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2016-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76560341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The results show that the impact on prices before the earnings release is significantly bigger when options trading is available. Moreover, the dissemination of earnings news is associated with significant unusual activity in the options market due to informed trading, especially when the earnings surprise is highly good.","PeriodicalId":43766,"journal":{"name":"Estudios De Economia","volume":"68 1","pages":"233-263"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2016-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89489649","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The application of these methods provides a greater level of detail in the decomposition exercise by allowing get the price and quantity effects associated with each of the explanatory variables in the wage equation. The results based on PNAD data, shows that the recent decline in the wage inequality was due mainly to the human capital accumulation, while frictions in the labor market (segmentation and discrimination) seem to have played a secondary role in this process. The price effect associated with human capital was the main reason for this reduction and, in particular, the fall in returns to education played an important role in this result.","PeriodicalId":43766,"journal":{"name":"Estudios De Economia","volume":"271 1","pages":"579-608"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2016-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79532720","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The relatively long literature on the determinants of banking spread in Brazil has considered this issue only superficially, not including direct measures of market expectations of macroeconomic variables. These variables, that may affect the bank's strategies in the process of the profitability optimization, are routinely disseminated by the Central monetary and banking regulatory agency and market participants. We include these macroeconomic measures in a dynamic empirical model of bank specific bank spreads following Maudos and Solis (2009), using quarterly data from 2003 to 2011. The sample includes the period after the recent world economic crisis. The results support the hypothesis posed here that expactational macroeconomic variables, such as expected inflation and future interest rates, are relevant in determining the banking spread in Brazil, even conditional to current observed values.","PeriodicalId":43766,"journal":{"name":"Estudios De Economia","volume":"73 1","pages":"643-673"},"PeriodicalIF":0.6,"publicationDate":"2016-09-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80505011","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"经济学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this way, it estimates growth equations for microenterprises of the Crediamigo Program for the period of 2005 to 2009. The equations are estimated by linear mixed effect models, as proposed by Rabe-Hesketh and Skrondal (2012). The results show that there is a growth path, but with diminishing returns.
