Resumo: Purpose: This paper investigates the determinants of indebtedness of Brazilian listed electric power companies, considering the pecking order and trade-off theories. Methodology: 24 companies were studied between 2010 and 2020. There is the same number of cross-section companies in the sample in each of the eleven years. The data is in balanced panel form, with 264 observations in total. The source of the data was the Economatica® platform. The regression method was ordinary least squares, considering so-called fixed effects and random effects. Results: The results showed that the larger the electric company the higher the debt and the higher the tangible assets and the growth rate of the company the lower the debt. The trade-off theory generally prevailed. Contributions of the Study: The empirical findings showed that the Brazilian electricity sector presented a conservative posture between 2010 and 2020. It is safe to say that there is no evidence of a financial collapse in the sector due to debt.

Metodología: Se estudiaron 24 empresas entre 2010 y 2020. Hay el mismo número de empresas transversales en la muestra en cada uno de los once años. Los datos se presentan en forma de panel equilibrado, con 264 observaciones en total. La fuente de los datos fue la plataforma Economatica®. El método de regresión fue el de mínimos cuadrados ordinarios, considerando los denominados efectos fijos y efectos aleatorios. Resultados: Los resultados mostraron que cuanto mayor era la empresa eléctrica mayor era la deuda y cuantos mayores eran los activos tangibles y la tasa de crecimiento de la empresa menor era la deuda. En general, prevaleció la teoría de la compensación. Contribuciones del Estudio: Los resultados empíricos mostraron que el sector eléctrico brasileño presentó una postura conservadora entre 2010 y 2020. Se puede afirmar sin temor a equivocarse que no hay indicios de colapso financiero en el sector como consecuencia del endeudamiento. Objetivo: Este estudo objetiva investigar os determinantes do endividamento das companhias brasileiras de energia elétrica listadas, considerando as teorias pecking order e trade-off. Metodologia: Foram estudadas 24 empresas entre 2010 e 2020. Na amostra há o mesmo número de companhias de corte transversal em cada um dos onze anos. Os dados estão na forma de painel equilibrado, com 264 observações no total. A fonte dos dados foi a plataforma Economatica®. O método de regressão foi o dos mínimos quadrados ordinários, considerando os chamados efeitos fixos e os efeitos aleatórios. Resultados: Os resultados mostraram que quanto maior a companhia elétrica maior o endividamento e quanto maiores os ativos tangíveis e a taxa de crescimento da companhia menor o endividamento. Prevaleceu, em geral, a teoria trade-off. Contribuições do Estudo: Os achados empíricos mostraram que o setor elétrico brasileiro apresentou uma postura conservadora entre 2010 e 2020. É seguro dizer que não há indícios de apagão financeiro no setor em função do endividamento.  Portal de Periódicos Eletrônicos da UFRN2023-07-04info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.ufrn.br/ambiente/article/view/3135510.21680/2176-9036.2023v15n2ID31355REVISTA AMBIENTE CONTÁBIL - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte; Vol. 15 No. 2 (2023): Jul./Dez.; 61-76REVISTA AMBIENTE CONTÁBIL - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte; Vol. 15 Núm. 2 (2023): Jul./Dez.; 61-76REVISTA AMBIENTE CONTÁBIL - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte - ISSN 2176-9036; v. 15 n. 2 (2023): Jul./Dez.; 61-762176-903610.21680/2176-9036.2023v15n2reponame:Revista Ambiente Contábilinstname:Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN)instacron:UFRNporhttps://periodicos.ufrn.br/ambiente/article/view/31355/17134Copyright (c) 2023 REVISTA AMBIENTE CONTÁBIL - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte - ISSN 2176-9036http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessRocha, Carlos HenriqueSilva, Francisco Gildemir Ferreira da Ferreira, Gustavo Mamede Dias2024-01-05T10:59:21Zoai:periodicos.ufrn.br:article/31355Revistahttps://periodicos.ufrn.br/ambientePUBhttps://periodicos.ufrn.br/ambiente/oai||prof.mauriciocsilva@gmail.com2176-90362176-9036opendoar:2024-01-05T10:59:21Revista Ambiente Contábil - Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN)false
