P&D e Produtividade na Indústria de Saúde Humana no Mundo

R&D and Productivity in the Human Health Industry Worldwide

Silva, Felipe Queiroz; Cabral, Bernardo Pereira

Artigo completo:

O objetivo deste artigo é analisar a relação recente entre P&D e produtividade da indústria de saúde humana no mundo. Para isso, utilizou-se uma ampla base de dados com 1.269 empresas de capital aberto de vários países entre 2011 e 2018. Utilizou-se técnicas econométrica de regressões quantílicas e painel dinâmico estimados pelo Método dos Momentos Generalizados (GMM). Em todos os testes estatísticos analisados, os resultados mostraram que a relação entre P&D e produtividade é positiva e estatisticamente significativa. Os resultados mostraram também que a relação entre P&D e produtividade na indústria de saúde humana é ainda maior nas grandes empresas sediadas na Ásia relativamente às pequenas empresas sediadas em outras regiões. Foi possível verificar que o gasto em P&D possui um efeito marginal crescente com relação a produtividade, ou seja, quanto mais produtiva é a empresa, maior é o impacto do gasto em P&D.

The aim of this article is to analyze the recent relationship between R&D and productivity in the human health industry worldwide. For this, we used a wide database with 1,269 publicly traded companies from many countries between 2011 and 2018. We used econometric techniques of quantile regressions and dynamic panel estimated by the Generalized Method of Moments (GMM). In all the statistical tests analyzed, the results show that the relationship between R&D and productivity is positive and statistically significant. The results also showed that the relationship between R&D and productivity in the human health industry is even greater in large companies based in Asia compared to small companies based in other regions. It was possible to verify that R&D spending has an increasing marginal effect in relation to productivity, that is, the more productive the company is, the greater is the impact of R&D spending.
