  • The Top 20 Brazilian Multinationals: a Long Way out of the Crises Highlights
    The Top 20 Brazilian Multinationals: A Long Way Out of the Crises January 18, 2018 São Paulo and New York, January 18, 2018: The Center of International Financial Management Studies (IFM) of the São Paulo School of Business Administration (EAESP) of Fundação Getulio Vargas (FGV), Brazil, and the Columbia Center on Sustainable Investment (CCSI), a joint center of Columbia Law School and The Earth Institute at Columbia University in New York, are releasing today the results of their research report profiling the top 20 Brazilian multinational enterprises (MNEs),1 ranked in terms of foreign assets. The report is part of the Emerging Market Global Players (EMGP) Project, a long-term study of the rapid global expansion of MNEs from emerging markets. The present report, conducted in 2017, covers the 2016 annual year.2 Highlights In 2016, the top 20 Brazilian MNEs included in our survey had combined foreign assets of approximately US$ 106.7 billion, foreign revenue (including exports) of more than US$ 135.3 billion and 195,377 foreign employees (excluding outsourced, temporary and seasonal employees).3 On average, the foreign assets of the top 20 firms constituted 44.9% of those firms’ total assets in 2016; foreign sales accounted for 61.6% of the firms’ total net sales; and foreign employees accounted for 23.9% of their total employees, resulting in an average Transnationality Index (TNI) of 43.5% (Annex Table 1). Of the top 20 Brazilian MNEs, the Oil and Gas Extraction, Food Manufacturing, Mining, the Primary Metal Manufacturing, and the Paper and Allied Products industries comprised almost 90% of the foreign assets (eleven companies).

Fax: + 358 919124835. E-mail address: [email protected] Abstract The large-scale pulp investment model, with its pressure on land, has created conflict and caused major disagreements and open hostility amongst the social movement and NGO networks, state actors, and the pulp and paper companies in Brazil. In this article, Ethical Analysis was applied in the assessment of the dynamics and possibilities of conflict resolution related to the expansion of pulpwood plantations in Brazil's Bahia State, particularly near Veracel Celulose. Ethical Analysis as a tool identifies the complex dynamics of contention through identifying bridges and rifts in the social, ecological and economic viewpoints of the main actors. The analysis was based on field research, interviews, and a review of existing literature. The results indicated that the conflict is marked by politics of power, and as long as this stage continues, the politics of cooperation and conflict resolution would be hard to achieve.

  • STATE-OWNED ENTERPRISES in BRAZIL: HISTORY and LESSONS by Aldo Musacchio and Sergio G
    Workshop on State-Owned Enterprises in the Development Process Paris, 4 April 2014 OECD Conference Centre, Room 4 STATE-OWNED ENTERPRISES IN BRAZIL: HISTORY AND LESSONS by Aldo Musacchio and Sergio G. Lazzarini This paper serves as background material for the Workshop on SOEs in the Development Process taking place in Paris on 4 April 2014. It was prepared by Aldo Musacchio and Sergio G. Lazzarini working as consultants for the OECD Secretariat. The opinions and views expressed and arguments employed herein are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect or represent the official views of the OECD or of the governments of its member countries. STATE-OWNED ENTERPRISES IN BRAZIL: HISTORY AND LESSONS Aldo Musacchio Harvard Business School and NBER Sergio G. Lazzarini Insper Prepared for The Working Party on State-Ownership and Privatisation Practices OECD (Revised version, February 28, 2014) INTRODUCTION Despite decades of liberalization and privatization in many countries, state ownership and state-led business activity remains widespread (Christiansen, 2011). Governments still often use state-owned enterprises (SOEs) to promote local development and invest in sectors in which private investment is scant. Many SOEs endured over the years and turned into large corporations partnering with market investors and competing on a global scale against private multinationals. The forms of ownership and control governments use in the set of surviving SOEs is, however, poorly understood. Beyond the traditional wholly-owned SOEs, governments also intervene to support specific industries by propping up privately held enterprises (i.e., “national champions”). These private firms receive government support in the form of minority equity investments, direct subsidized loans from development banks, and equity and debt purchases by sovereign wealth funds.

E-mail address: [email protected] Abstract The large-scale pulp investment model, with its pressure on land, has created conflict and caused major disagreements and open hostility amongst the social movement and NGO networks, state actors, and the pulp and paper companies in Brazil. In this article, Ethical Analysis was applied in the assessment of the dynamics and possibilities of conflict resolution related to the expansion of pulpwood plantations in Brazil's Bahia State, particularly near Veracel Celulose. Ethical Analysis as a tool identifies the complex dynamics of contention through identifying bridges and rifts in the social, ecological and economic viewpoints of the main actors. The analysis was based on field research, interviews, and a review of existing literature. The results indicated that the conflict is marked by politics of power, and as long as this stage continues, the politics of cooperation and conflict resolution would be hard to achieve. The key actors have diverging interests, values and principles, and different ways of presenting their viewpoints.
