SUMMARY:

This thesis examines regulatory impact analysis - RIA as a tool to support decision-making in federal regulatory agencies in Brazil. Despite its wide use, there are few studies that assess the quality of RIA and that examine its analytical capacity to support good decisions. The available studies are concentrated in the United States and Europe and adopt limited evaluation criteria. To contribute to the construction of knowledge on the subject, this thesis has the general objective of investigating the quality of RIAs carried out by Brazilian federal regulatory agencies. To achieve this general objective, the thesis was organized into three independent but complementary studies. Each study aims to achieve a specific objective: (i) to understand the current state of the literature on RIA quality assessment; (ii) evaluate the quality of AIRs carried out by Brazilian federal regulatory agencies; (iii) ascertain the factors that influenced the quality of RIAs carried out by Brazilian federal regulatory agencies. The first study was carried out through a literature review, provided an overview of the quality of RIA in different countries and contributed with concepts, methods and approaches on the subject. In the second study, an evaluation instrument was developed with 50 quality criteria, which was applied to evaluate 21 RIAs carried out by Brazilian regulatory agencies. It was identified that the impact analysis in the country presents important weaknesses and inconsistencies. The third study investigated, through documentary research and interviews, the bureaucratic, political and institutional factors that may explain the low quality of RIA in Brazilian agencies. The analysis of the three studies allowed knowing the state of the art on the subject, identifying the weaknesses of RIA in Brazilian regulatory agencies and exploring the explanatory factors of its low quality. As practical contributions, paths were indicated for Brazil to adopt actions, strategies and procedures that qualify RIA and increase the effectiveness of regulation in the country. A research agenda was also proposed that can contribute to the advancement of knowledge on the subject.
