Capital de risco em Portugal: gestão do risco

Capital de risco em Portugal: gestão do risco

Abstract

Apesar de ser um instrumento de investimento importante no processo de criação de empresas e na expansão e modernização do tecido empresarial já existente, o capital de risco assume actualmente um papel reduzido na economia portuguesa. Este estudo fornece uma visão sobre o estado da arte da indústria em Portugal, com base na informação existente e complementa-a recorrendo a um estudo empírico. A esse respeito são analisados os principais factores de risco identificados pelos operadores nacionais, os elementos contratuais mais relevantes e as modalidades de financiamento mais utilizadas. Adicionalmente é dedicada atenção ao uso de títulos convertíveis e o seu papel na mitigação dos riscos de agência inerentes à relação entre as capitais de risco e os empreendedores. As conclusões obtidas indicam que em determinados aspectos, o capital de risco vem revelando alguma aproximação aos modelos internacionais de private equity, nomeadamente no crescimento recente do mercado de buyouts e também no aumento do investimento em capital-semente e start-ups. São no entanto sinais modestos estes sinais e em nada diminuem a necessidade de desenvolvimento do sector. Acresce que as capitais de risco não exploram ainda consistentemente as vantagens decorrentes de modalidades de financiamento como o financiamento faseado e das propriedades dos títulos convertíveis.

The venture capital industry is still of minor importance in the Portuguese economy, although it is recognized as an important investment tool for the creation of new enterprises and business as well as for the expansion and modernization of existing ones. This study presents a look through the current state of the art of this industry in Portugal, based on existing information and complementing it with an empirical analysis. It assesses the main risk factors perceived by the venture capitalists, as well as the relevant contractual elements and the role of different financing models. It also sheds a look on the use of convertible securities and its role on solving agency problems/risks inherent to the entrepreneur-venture capitalist relation. It concludes that in certain aspects, the venture capital industry in Portugal is starting to reveal some of the characteristics found in more developed financial markets, as for example, in the increasing number and value of buyout investments, as well as more start up and seed investment. In spite of this, it is still a developing sector and quite distant of the more advanced venture capital markets. On the other hand, it shows that many venture capitalists do not use staged financing and convertible securities as a suitable means of risk management.
