FPM e PIB: uma análise da representatividade financeira desta transferência e da matriz econômica deste importante indicador nos municípios da AMCENTRO

Abstract

The present study aims primarily to analyze the representativeness of the Municipal Participation Fund (FPM) for each municipality within the Central Region Municipalities Association of the State of Rio Grande do Sul (AMCENTRO/RS). Secondarily, it aims to analyze the composition of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP) of these municipalities. Data were collected through the analysis of documents or information available on the websites of the Court of Auditors - TCE/RS, Department of Economics and Statistics - DEE/RS, and the National Treasury Secretariat - STN, covering the period from 2012 to 2021, and analyzed using relative frequencies.Thus, the representativeness of this transfer was assessed firstly in relation to own tax revenues, then to total net revenue, and finally to GDP. Additionally, the composition of gross value added from agriculture, industry, and services, as well as taxes net of subsidies that generate GDP, was demonstrated. It was shown that in the municipalities comprising AMCENTRO, dependency on FPM resources exists in most of the smaller population municipalities, and this dependency diminishes with increasing city population. Regarding economic structure, it was found that the majority of municipalities have service provision as their primary economic activity.
