Impacts of tax incentives on innovation of large companies: an evaluation based on ABDI innovation survey

Authors

Abstract

Tax incentives are an instrument used to expand innovative efforts either quantitatively or qualitatively. In Brazil, fiscal incentives were broadened in 2005 with the Law of Good. This article analyzes the innovative efforts of companies in the ABDI Research Survey, comparing those that received tax incentives vis-à-vis those that did not receive, also controlling for the origin of capital. The analyzes carried out with Logit model indicated that the impacts of the tax incentives on the type of innovation performed vary according to the technological intensity of the sectors. But the tax incentives were not significant in relation to the origin of capital, indicating that they do not alter the innovation dynamics of the subsidiary companies.
