Title in Portuguese
Crédito e empreendedorismo: confrontando eventos agregados e microdados
Keywords in Portuguese
Crédito
Desenvolvimento econômico
Empreendedorismo
Abstract in Portuguese
Enquanto microeconomistas apontam para uma correlação positiva entre empreendedorismo e riqueza, macroeconomistas enfatizam que existe uma correlação negativa entre empreendedorismo e desenvolvimento (acumulação de riqueza). Este trabalho apresenta um modelo que reconcilia esses dois fatos aparentemente contraditórios. Tomando com base um modelo padrão de empreendedorismo e restrição de crédito, como em Evans e Jovanovic (1989), adicionamos a este modelo uma condição de equilíbrio no mercado de trabalho. Tal modificação gera a coexistência dessas duas correlações de sentidos opostos. A correlação negativa entre empreendedorismo e desenvolvimento existe mesmo que o mecanismo gerador do desenvolvimento seja a diminuição da restrição de crédito. O modelo prevê que a proporção de empreendedores diminui para a fração rica e que empreendedorismo pode aumentar para a fração pobre da população. Além disso, mostra-se que tais predições são consistentes com dados brasileiros recentes.

Abstract in English
While microeconomists show a positive correlation between entrepreneurship and wealth, macroeconomists emphasize that there is a negative correlation between entrepreneurship and development (wealth accumulation). This work presents a model that brings together these two apparently conflicting facts. Departing from a standard entrepreneurship setup, as in Evans and Jovanovic (1989), our model adds a market clearing condition in the labor market. This addition to the standard model allows for the coexistence of these two correlations of opposite directions. Such negative correlation between entrepreneurship and development can be obtained even when development is generated by relaxing the credit constraint. The model predicts that the proportion of entrepreneurs decreases for the rich and that entrepreneurship can increase for the poor. Further, it is shown that such predictions are consistent with recent Brazilian data.
