Dissertação (Programa de Mestrado em Administração Pública) - Fundação João Pinheiro, Belo Horizonte.http://repositorio.fjp.mg.gov.br/handle/tede/583This paper aims to verify the impact of the privatization of water and sewer services on the access to such services as well as on the tariffs charged for them. This paper is relevant especially due to the sector’s recent legal changes that resulted in the Law n. 14.026/2020, which intends to increase access to sanitation services in Brazil by opening its market to private sector operators. In order to estimate the impact, it was employed the differences-in-differences method, using data of 3.536 Brazilian municipalities, extracted from SNIS, the Brazilian National Sanitation Information System, for the years 1998-2019. The results show a positive and statistically significant impact of private sector operators (compared to their public peers) on water and sewage services – including sewer treatment. Also, it was also detected a positive and statistically significant impact on the tariffs charged for those services once privatization occurs, compared to the prices charged by public sector operators.application/pdfAcesso AbertoSaneamento BásicoDesestatizaçãoBrasilServiço de Água e EsgotoTarifaSistema Nacional de Informações sobre Saneamento (SNIS)DissertaçãoSANEAMENTO BASICO::RESIDUOS SOLIDOS, DOMESTICOS E INDUSTRIAIS
