Authors: Ramirez Dionisio
Published: November 2022

The behaviour of the regional unemployment rates in Spain is analysed from 1976 to 2000 using Absolute and Relative Dispersion Indexes. The results show a lack of convergence in the regional rates and a cyclical pattern depending on the different evolution of such regional rates in booms and slumps. Once we distinguish the individual behavior of each regional rate compared to the national average and re-calculate the Dispersion Indexes taking into account the non-convergence regions, we see that from 1984 there is an important change in the evolution of the Absolute Dispersion Index and the amplitude of the fluctuations of the Relative Dispersion Index are smaller.

Published: November 2022

The creation and delivery of value through innovation has become the rule for contemporary companies in the context of the market, driven mostly by two forces, complexity and the rate of change.

Business models are at the heart of innovation in distinctive ways. First, new technologies create opportunities for new business models. Second, appropriate business models are necessary to translate technical success into commercial success. Third, business models themselves are subject to innovation involving discontinuous changes in the paradigm used by firms to go to market. In this sense, the ability to analyze what consumers really want, and to satisfy consumers’ needs, is perhaps the most important driver of business model innovation.

GERMAN ACTIONS ON GREEK CRISIS
Authors: Bieniek Damian
Published: November 2022

Beginning of Greece problems was related to the accession to the Euro Zone. It occurred despite Greece did not meet the criteria thanks to the support of Germany and the Bundesbank, which assessed the economies of countries aspiring to a common currency. Lack of credibility for one country could burry the entire project. After entering the euro zone, Greece has significantly increased the reliability and successive governments could continue to fund increasing debt by issuance of bonds, bought mostly by French and German banks. Greek debt problem was exposed by the crisis of 2008. After collapse of the Greek finance European Union was forced to create assistance programs for the country, exceeding 100 billion. The largest cost were beard of course, by the economy of Germany. In the possession of European banks are Greek government bonds worth 52,3 billion dollars. With about 43 percent of this amount corresponds to German institutions, and further 27 percent to French lenders. Thus, Greece's problems transforms into problems of the banking sector in Germany and France, and problems across the EU economy Financial institutions and EU member states have imposed draconian Greek rescue package, which is believed to be a rescue package for the EURO. Germany stresses that loans to Greece, should be based on "market price" because otherwise it would be a form of subsidy, which violates the principle of the euro area. Angela Merkel has been pushing up the leading role of the IMF's "rescue" of Greece, which met with numerous objections. Merkel has been opposing by long time the idea of financing the debt of Greece by other countries, particularly by Germany. Merkel behaved so in fear of her party's election results, because the German taxpayers with an increasing reluctance opposed aid for the Greeks. German minister of economy said, however, that the ejection of Greece from the euro zone is impossible. In consideration to many economists Greeks will not be able to repay their obligations, most Greek bonds which were held by German banks should be written off. Germany has adopted a tough stance towards Greece and its problems with a huge budget deficit, impending bankruptcy of the country. Germany was the biggest beneficiary of the unified currency. Now it's bearing the greatest cost of saving a drowning partner. Billions of euros, which are pumped, are not guided by a means of noble conception of European solidarity, but a pragmatic concern about its banking system.

A estrutura de capital das empresas de pequeno porte do APL de confecções de Pernambuco
Authors: Ramos Raquel Souza , Santos Joséte Florêncio dos , Silva Alana Héllen Costa e , Almeida Moisés Araújo
Published: November 2022

O objetivo do trabalho foi identificar a estrutura de capital adotada pelas micro, pequenas e médias empresas que compõem o Arranjo Produtivo Local (APL) de confecções do Agreste de Pernambuco, pois a maioria dos estudos desenvolvidos foram baseados na realidade de grandes corporações, negligenciado o estudo no âmbito das empresas de menor porte. A pesquisa caracteriza-se como descritiva e foi realizada em 25 empresas dos setores têxtil, de confecções e de lavanderias localizadas nos municípios de Caruaru, Toritama e Santa Cruz. A coleta e análise de dados ocorreu através da aplicação de um questionário estruturado e sistematizado por meio de estatística descritiva. Os resultados, inicialmente, buscaram determinar o perfil dos respondentes, priorizando os proprietários como fonte confiável de dados financeiros. Observou-se que a maioria dos respondentes não valorizam o conhecimento acadêmico, considerando que a experiência deve nortear suas decisões. Ademais, concernente aos achados sobre a estrutura de capital das empresas pesquisadas, no início das suas atividades 92% informaram que utilizaram apenas capital próprio. As restrições enfrentadas pelas pequenas empresas ocorrem antes mesmo do início das suas atividades. Já inseridas no mercado, quando necessitam de capital, 84% das empresas recorrem primeiro a lucros retidos. Essa preferência pelo autofinanciamento pode ocorrer pela necessidade que os proprietários têm em manter o controle da empresa, mas também, por causa das dificuldades que as pequenas empresas têm em acessar fontes externas, devido à assimetria informacional. Porém, quando os recursos internos são insuficientes às empresas apontaram recorrer ao financiamento externo. Das empresas, 64% utilizam empréstimos bancários de curto prazo como primeira opção, seguido de amigos e familiares (20%) e, por último, aumento de capital próprio (4%). Essa hierarquia de recursos aponta indícios que a teoria de Pecking Order pode melhor explicar o comportamento dessas empresas. Entretanto, foi possível observar também que em 16% das empresas foi identificado uma busca pelo equilíbrio entre capital próprio e capital de terceiros, mesmo que não seja uma busca pelo nível ótimo de endividamento. Essas empresas buscam sempre ter capital de terceiros na estrutura capital. Esse comportamento aponta indícios que a teoria de Trade-Off também pode explicar, de forma adaptada, o comportamento dessas empresas.

A pesquisa é qualitativa, descritiva, documental, e utilizou análise de conteúdo. Obteve-se a relação das IFES aplicando filtros disponibilizados na página do Ministério da Educação, e foram utilizados seus Estatutos, Regimentos Gerais e Regimentos Internos dos Conselhos para a coleta dos dados. Os resultados indicaram que, das dezessete IFES observadas, sete mantêm Conselhos de Curadores (ou nome similar). Todos são instituídos com natureza deliberativa, mas as funções de deliberação não contemplam a totalidade das atribuições; em cinco universidades, parte das apreciações é opinativa. As atribuições, após serem aglutinadas por temas, indicaram um escopo de atuação em: fiscalização econômico-financeira; orçamento; créditos adicionais; prestação de contas; escrituração contábil; situação patrimonial; operações de crédito; contratos e convênios; valores e contribuições; e auditoria. Todos os Conselhos garantem representações discentes e docentes, mas alguns não incluem outros segmentos das comunidades institucional, local e regional. Os processos seletivos dos representantes são díspares, variando desde eleições pelos pares até indicações do próprio reitor. Quanto às atribuições tão desiguais, percebeu-se que não há um padrão sobre qual deve ser o papel desempenhado pelo Conselho Curador em uma instituição federal de ensino superior.
Vantagens e desvantagens da terceirização no âmbito da administração pública brasileira
Authors: Silva José Marconde Souza da
Published: November 2022

A Administração Pública faz uso, com frequência, da terceirização que é, em síntese, o repasse de atividades para que sejam executadas por outras empresas, assumindo que esta é uma ferramenta gerencial moderna que visa atingir objetivos, sobretudo no que diz respeito a entrega efetiva de bens e serviços com qualidade efetividade a um custo baixo, com vistas a favorecer o coletivo. A adoção da prática decorre da tentativa de minimizar os gastos públicos e alcançar a eficiência na prestação dos serviços, uma vez que, ao terceirizar atividades, o Estado foca em sua atividade fim. Contudo, identificar quando e quanto terceirizar é necessário para que a Administração Pública possa ser bem-sucedida em seus intentos. Conhecer as vantagens e desvantagens da utilização da terceirização para o setor público é ter respaldo para todo investimento nesta que se apresenta como uma ferramenta gerencial moderna. O presente estudo tem como objetivo elencar as principais vantagens e desvantagens da utilização da terceirização no setor público. Trata-se de um estudo qualitativo, descritivo, realizado mediante pesquisa bibliográfica. Os resultados apontam que para promover a melhoria contínua da terceirização na administração pública, e obter as vantagens na terceirização, os gestores devem focar em editais e contratos que exijam das empresas a obediência à legislação e a garantia dos direitos do trabalhador, bem como fiscalizações periódicas voltadas ao cumprimento de suas responsabilidades.

Estima-se que, no Brasil, as compras governamentais movimentam cerca de 20% do Produto Interno Bruto (PIB). Esse expressivo poder de compra do Estado configura-se como potencial impulsionador do desenvolvimento sustentável, o que se torna ainda mais relevante nas universidades públicas que, além de compradoras, tem o papel de influenciadoras na sociedade. Este trabalho tem como objetivo geral verificar quais as principais dificuldades enfrentadas pelas microempresas e pequenas empresas locais para aumentar sua participação nos pregões eletrônicos de compras públicas sustentáveis Universidade Federal do Vale do São Francisco (UNIVASF). Para o seu alcance, foi realizada uma pesquisa exploratória e descritiva. O procedimento utilizado foi survey com emprego de questionário eletrônico para uma amostra 72 empresas sediadas em Petrolina - PE. Os dados coletados em 69 questionários válidos receberam tratamento envolvendo estatística descritiva e análise de conteúdo. Os resultados mostraram que as maiores dificuldades para participar em pregões eletrônicos são: falta ou pouco conhecimento das leis sobre licitação (46%), dificuldade de concorrer com empresas grandes (29%), pouco conhecimento sobre o COMPRASNET (29%) e falta de divulgação das licitações (47%).

Authors: Tamanini Douglas Fernando , Petri Sergio Murilo
Published: November 2022

O objetivo desse trabalho reside em estruturar um modelo para avaliar o desempenho na tomada de decisão de crédito de uma cooperativa financeira brasileira. Consiste em um estudo de caso, exploratório, com abordagem quali-quantitativa, tendo como principal instrumento para coleta de dados a entrevista não estruturada com a equipe de crédito da instituição, complementada por análise documental. O instrumento de intervenção utilizado foi o MCDA-C, permitindo identificar, organizar, estruturar e mensurar os critérios para análise e decisão de crédito. O modelo possibilita a equipe de crédito verificar se os requisitos considerados são suficientes e adequados, se consideram itens qualitativos e quantitativos e se são satisfatórios para os critérios por eles identificados.
An algorithm for the selection of reporting guidelines
Authors: Kim Soo Young
Published: November 2022

A reporting guideline can be defined as “a checklist, flow diagram, or structured text to guide authors in reporting a specific type of research, developed using explicit methodology.” A reporting guideline outlines the bare minimum of information that must be presented in a research report in order to provide a transparent and understandable explanation of what was done and what was discovered. Many reporting guidelines have been developed, and it has become important to select the most appropriate reporting guideline for a manuscript. Herein, I propose an algorithm for the selection of reporting guidelines. This algorithm was developed based on the research design classification system and the content presented for major reporting guidelines through the EQUATOR (Enhancing the Quality and Transparency of Health Research) network. This algorithm asks 10 questions: “is it a protocol,” “is it secondary research,” “is it an in vivo animal study,” “is it qualitative research,” “is it economic evaluation research,” “is it a diagnostic accuracy study or prognostic research,” “is it quality improvement research,” “is it a non-comparative study,” “is it a comparative study between groups,” and “is it an experimental study?” According to the responses, 16 appropriate reporting guidelines are suggested. Using this algorithm will make it possible to select reporting guidelines rationally and transparently.

DEVELOPMENT OF EMISSION INTENSITY FACTORS FOR A SOUTH AFRICAN ROAD-FREIGHT LOGISTICS SERVICE PROVIDER
Authors: du Plessis Martin , van Eeden Joubert , Botha ME
Published: November 2022

The Global Logistics Emissions Council (GLEC) framework developed logistics emission factors to be used uniformly in North America and Europe. It included an approximation for African countries; however, actual South African emissions were not accurately reflected. Therefore, in this study, carbon emissions factors were calculated using calculated tonne-kilometres and the energy-based methodology. The authors obtained several datasets from a logistics service provider (LSP) consisting of vehicle routes, refuelling data, and freight load data. The project developed factors for each individual trip, for similar repetitive trips, and for the entire data set. These different sets of factors were developed to allow the use of different emission calculation and reporting standards. The LSP could use these emission intensity factors to estimate carbon emissions using the activity-based approach, report emissions according to legislation, and predict how much carbon emissions would be emitted to move a customer’s shipment.

EVALUATION OF DATA-DRIVEN DECISION-MAKING IMPLEMENTATION IN THE MINING INDUSTRY
Authors: Bisschoff Rudolph , Grobbelaar Schalk
Published: November 2022

The ability of organisations to collect and store vast amounts of data has become increasingly more accessible and affordable in recent decades thanks to the advancement of Industry 4.0. This ability is an enabler of data-driven decision-making (DDDM). However, converting data into knowledge that can inform decision-makers has proven challenging for many companies. The ability to perform DDDM effectively depends on a combination of capabilities that encompass the technological, analytical, and managerial aspects of a business. This research focuses on the mining industry, and used a scoping literature review to identify the different DDDM tools that are currently available, the potential benefits of DDDM, the key enablers of DDDM, and the lessons learnt from previous implementations. The objective of the paper is to assist mining industry organisations in developing a DDDM implementation framework. Keywords data-driven decision making; industry 4.0; mining
