The Cost

The objective of this study was to verify the influence of the structure of ownership and family management in the cost of debt financing of publicly traded companies listed in B3. For this, a descriptive, quantitative research was carried out by means of documentary analysis, with consultation to Reference Forms, Economatica database and B3 website. The sample was composed of 211 companies in 2012, 214 in 2013, 225 in 2014, 220 in 2015 and 223 in 2016. The results showed that the average cost of debt financing, in most years, was not lower in the group of companies that had a family-owned structure. However, when comparing the cost of debt financing between companies that had family and non-family management, it was noticed that, in most years, the cost was lower in the group of family-run companies. Therefore, it was found that only the family management influenced to reduce the cost of debt financing.

Free Cash Flows

This research analyzes the relationship between free cash flows (FCFs) and the different levels of Corporate Governance present in the Brazilian stock market. To this end, the sample was composed of 212 Brazilian publicly traded companies listed on Brasil, Bolsa, Balcão [B]³, in the period from 2010 to 2018. The methodology consisted of estimating a regression for panel data, using the random effects model, estimating by generalized least square (GLS) and assuming adjustments for autocorrelation and robust standard errors for heteroscedasticity. The results found, for the sample studied, suggest that Corporate Governance levels are positively related to the FCFs. In synergy, when compared to the Traditional level of [B]³, companies listed on the Novo Mercado and Level 2 levels tend to present higher FCF values. In addition, the larger the size of the companies and the higher their return on equity, the higher their FCFs tend to be, just as companies in stages of maturity tend to present lower FCF values. The relevance of this research is based on analyzing, in a stock market subject to imperfections, factors that may affect decisions about the level of cash maintenance of companies, more specifically by evaluating how Corporate Governance mechanisms relate to the theory of FCFs, in a context of potential conflict of interest.
