Resumo: | The Brazilian stock market is constantly growing, however, there are conflicts of interest between the principal and the agent regarding the management of the funds invested, which in turn give rise to the agency problem. Thus, the relationship between this scenario of conflicts and the complexity and obscurity of the Brazilian tax system is directly related to the investor as he seeks the highest possible return on his investments. Thus, good tax governance practices to reduce the tax burden on companies' profits may be a strategy that companies can use to reduce the minimum rate of return demanded by shareholders. Thus, this research sought to analyze the effect of Tax Governance on the cost of equity of Brazilian companies listed in B3. The final sample resulted in a balanced panel composed of 300 observations, whose analysis comprised 60 companies in the period from 2012 to 2016. The data analyzed were extracted from Bloomberg® and the Reference Form available on the website Brazil, Bolsa e Balcão (B3). The methodology used was pooled multiple regression. The results suggest that good tax governance practices influence, statistically and positively, the cost of capital of Brazilian companies, that is to say, as there is no reduction of the cash flows from the payment of taxes, investors increase the rate of expected return on investments. In conclusion, the change in the cost of equity of companies can be explained by the adoption of tax governance. |

Então, a relação entre esse cenário de conflitos e a complexidade e obscuridade do sistema tributário brasileiro está diretamente relacionada ao investidor, uma vez que este busca o maior retorno possível de seus investimentos. Desse modo, boas práticas de governança tributária para a redução da carga tributária incidente sobre o lucro das companhias, pode ser uma estratégia a ser utilizada pelas empresas para reduzir a taxa mínima de retorno demandada pelos acionistas. Assim, esta pesquisa buscou analisar o efeito da Governança Tributária sobre o custo de capital próprio das empresas brasileiras listadas na B3. A amostra final resultou em um painel balanceado formado por 300 observações, cuja análise compreendeu 60 empresas no período de 2012 a 2016. Os dados analisados foram extraídos da Bloomberg® e do Formulário de Referência disponível no sítio eletrônico do Brasil, Bolsa e Balcão (B3). A metodologia utilizada foi a regressão múltipla do tipo pooled. Os resultados encontrados sugerem que as boas práticas de governança tributária influenciam, estatística e positivamente, o custo de capital das empresas brasileiras, isto é, à medida que não há redução dos fluxos de caixa provenientes do pagamento de tributos, os investidores aumentam a taxa de retorno esperada dos investimentos realizados. Concluindo, que a variação no custo de capital próprio das empresas pode ser explicada pela adoção da governança tributária.Fernando de Almeida Santos2019-01-23info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistahermes.com.br/index.php/hermes1/article/view/43310.21710/rch.v23i0.433Revista Científica Hermes; v. 23 (2019): janeiro a abril; 3-27Revista Científica Hermes ; Vol. 23 (2019): janeiro a abril; 3-27Revista Científica Hermes ; Vol. 23 (2019): janeiro a abril; 3-272175-055610.21710/rch.v23i0reponame:Revista Científica Hermesinstname:Instituto Paulista de Ensino (FIPEN)instacron:FIPENporhttps://revistahermes.com.br/index.php/hermes1/article/view/433/pdfCopyright (c) 2019 Caritsa Scartaty Moreira, Maurício Correa Silvahttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessMoreira, Caritsa ScartatySilva, Maurício Correa2023-01-25T03:40:38Zoai:ojs.revistahermes.com.br:article/433Revistahttp://www.fipen.edu.br/hermes1/index.php/hermes1PUBhttp://www.fipen.edu.br/hermes1/index.php/hermes1/oai||hermes@fipen.edu.br2175-05562175-0556opendoar:2023-01-25T03:40:38Revista Científica Hermes - Instituto Paulista de Ensino (FIPEN)false |
