Analysis of working capital credit loan by private banks to companies in the
Brazilian economy between 2010 and 2016.
The post-keynesian theory, particularly Minsky's financial instability hypothesis, suggests that variables related to agents' expectations may have a greater ability to anticipate the behavior of credit granting to companies by private banks than variables related to the economic real situation. Based on this concept, this dissertation aims to identify, among the time series provided by Bacen, FIPE, FGV, B3, and IBGE, which ones are most closely aligned with the behavior of credit concession to companies by private banks through working capital loans in Brazil between 2010 and 2016. To this end, a graphical comparative analysis of the series is performed.
