This article is the result of an investigation about tax incentives in the State of Maranhão, where the purpose was to answer the question: what is the efficiency of tax incentives in relation to the impact on the state of employment? The hypothesis behind this research is that the idea of the Maranese government to create fiscal incentives to stimulate the generation of employment and income can not impact the regions with low human development index (HDI). The general objective of this article is to verify the relationship between the fiscal incentive and the balance of jobs between 2010 and 2016 in Maranhão in regions with lower HDI. The specific objectives are: to investigate the policy of granting the fiscal incentive "more companies" in Maranhão; compare the number of jobs generated with the number of companies that benefited from the tax incentive; to verify the evolution of the jobs generated in each mesoregion and to know the economic activities that generate more jobs in the state. This study is justified because it believes in the relevance it can bring to the academic environment and to the society that encompasses government, companies and professionals, since it presents a more comprehensive perspective regarding economic development in the local regional government of Maranhão. It considers the methodology of this study, a field research, but of quantitative-descriptive character. Among the results, it was identified that the fiscal incentive had no impact on job creation in the Meso-regions that have the lowest HDI indices in the state of Maranhão between 2010 and 2016.

Cities are an important resource for the socio-economic and regional development of the state. Urban development depends on resources, capital, labour force, which mobility from the impact of scientific and technological progress increases all the time. Resources don't belong largely to the concrete place anymore as it was before. That is why cities could think about the possibilities of increase of their attraction and competitiveness at the context of sustainable development. It means that one of the most important goals of the urban development and management is to create such kind of the urban environment which will be in line with the needs and requirements of the city inhabitants, which will be attractive for the foreign investors and tourists, which could compete with other cities. But the most important is that urban environment could give us all an opportunity to be active, participate and enjoy. The world practice shows that the use of the principles and instruments of the marketing for provision of sustainable urban development has positive impact on the socioeconomic and regional development of the state – it improves the investment environment, increases the rate of the economic investments, promotes business and tourism, improves the quality of education, increases welfare and mental development. The necessity of more detailed analysis of the importance of place marketing for sustainable urban development determines actuality of this research.

AbstractThis paper analyzes the impact of the Italian Start Up Act which entered into force in October 2012. This public policy provides a unique bundle of benefits, such as tax incentives, public loan guarantees, and a more flexible labor law, for firms registered as “innovative startups” in Italy. This legislation has been implemented by the Italian government to increase innovativeness of small and young enterprises by facilitating access to (external) capital and (high-skilled) labor. Consequently, the goal of our evaluation is to assess the impact of the policy on equity, debt, and employment. Using various conditional difference-in-difference models, we find that the Italian innovative startup policy has met its primary objectives. The econometric results strongly suggest that Italian innovative startups are more successful in obtaining equity and debt capital and they also hire more employees because of the program participation.

Regulatory and supervisory authorities have issued statements or guidelines to banks on how to deal with the impact of the outbreak, including relation to easing loan terms and conditions for impacted borrowers.
