The Brazilian Banking Sector: Capitals Centralization and Changes in the Organic Composition of Capital

ABSTRACT

Changes in the organic composition of capital in the Brazilian banking sector were investigated, focusing on the accumulation and centralization process.

The analysis shows that the capital in the sector has been rearticulated to dilute the limits to its expansion, mainly through changes in the work processes, allowed by technology.
