Abstract

Qual o impacto de uma transferência incondicional a um município quando seu vizinho também recebe a transferência? Nesse artigo n os testamos se uma transferência do governo federal, o Fundo de Participação dos Municípios (FPM), afeta os gastos municipais de forma diferente dependendo dos municípios vizinhos. Nos utilizamos municípios próximos a um dos quatro pontos de descontinuidade no repasse do FPM de acordo com faixas de população e que possuíam vizinhos próximos a pontos de descontinuidade diferentes. Nós estimamos o impacto do FPM recebido pelo próprio municípios e pelo vizinho usando o método de Regressões em Descontinuidade (RDD). Os resultados indicam que parte do efeito flypaper do FPM sobre a economia local estimado na literatura pode ser explicado pelo aumento de gastos nos municípios vizinhos. O spillover e em geral positivo, com exceção dos gastos em saúde e saneamento em algumas faixas populacionais. Nós também consideramos uma amostra de vizinhos mais distantes dos pontos de descontinuidade, e mostramos que nesse caso as diferenças nas estimativas quando controlamos pelo FPM do vizinho não são substanciais.
