Resumo: The aim of this paper is to detect evidence of cartel in the application of volatility models in price data of gas dealers in the municipalities of Belém/PA and Santarém/PA. Cartels are coordinated actions between firms in which there are tacit or explicit agreements aimed at price coordination, quantities offered and/or market slices, to maximize profit jointly. For the detection of cartels, arch, GARCH, EGARCH and TGARCH volatility models will be applied. The data used are the average weekly gasoline prices extracted from the official portal of the National Agency for Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels (ANP), in the period from 2004 to 2020. The results of the equation for mean showed no indications of cartel, while the ARCH model for variance detected only in Belém. There were no indications of the presence of asymmetric shocks in the Belém series, with only the occurrence in Santarém. It is concluded that the methodology is useful for the detection of cartels of gasoline dealers.

Los cárteles son acciones coordinadas entre empresas en las que existen acuerdos tácitos o explícitos destinados a la coordinación de precios, cantidades ofrecidas y/o rebanadas de mercado, para maximizar las ganancias juntos. Para la detección de cárteles se aplicarán los modelos de volatilidad arch, GARCH, EGARCH y TGARCH. Los datos utilizados son los precios promedio semanales de la gasolina extraídos del portal oficial de la Agencia Nacional del Petróleo, Gas Natural y Biocombustibles (ANP), de 2004 a 2020. Los resultados de la ecuación para la media no mostraron indicios de cártel, mientras que el modelo ARCH para la varianza se detectó solo en Belém. No hubo indicios de la presencia de choques asimétricos en la serie de Belém, con sólo la ocurrencia en Santarém. Se concluye que la metodología es útil para la detección de cárteles de distribuidores de gasolina.O objetivo deste artigo é detectar indício de cartel na aplicação de modelos de volatilidade em dados de preços de postos revendedores de gasolina dos municípios de Belém/PA e Santarém/PA. Cartéis são ações coordenadas entre firmas nas quais há acordos tácitos ou explícitos objetivando a coordenação de preços, quantidades ofertadas e/ou fatias de mercado, para maximização de lucro conjuntamente. Para detecção dos cartéis, serão aplicados modelos de volatilidade ARCH, GARCH, EGARCH e TGARCH. Os dados utilizados são os preços médios semanais de gasolina extraídos do portal oficial da Agência Nacional do Petróleo, Gás Natural e Biocombustíveis (ANP), no período de 2004 a 2020. Os resultados da equação para média não apontaram indícios de cartel, enquanto o modelo ARCH para variância detectou apenas em Belém. Não houve indícios de presença de choques assimétricos na série de Belém havendo apenas a ocorrência em Santarém. Conclui-se que a metodologia é útil para a detecção de cartéis de revendedores de gasolina.Research, Society and Development2021-10-12info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/2139710.33448/rsd-v10i13.21397Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 No. 13; e279101321397Research, Society and Development; Vol. 10 Núm. 13; e279101321397Research, Society and Development; v. 10 n. 13; e2791013213972525-3409reponame:Research, Society and Developmentinstname:Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)instacron:UNIFEIporhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/article/view/21397/18909Copyright (c) 2021 Estevão Miguel Cardoso da Silva; Brena do Nascimento Carvalho; Zilda Joaquina Cohen Gama dos Santos; Tarcísio da Costa Lobatohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessSilva, Estevão Miguel Cardoso daCarvalho, Brena do NascimentoSantos, Zilda Joaquina Cohen Gama dosLobato, Tarcísio da Costa2021-11-21T18:26:28Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/21397Revistahttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/indexPUBhttps://rsdjournal.org/index.php/rsd/oairsd.articles@gmail.com2525-34092525-3409opendoar:2024-01-17T09:40:49.377580Research, Society and Development - Universidade Federal de Itajubá (UNIFEI)false
