Resumo

Atualmente, a agressividade fiscal e a multinacionalidade tem sido temas recorrentes em pesquisas internacionais na área contábil. O objetivo deste estudo é analisar como a agressividade tributária (BTD ou TTVA) é afetada pela multinacionalidade, considerando o nível de ativos intangíveis das empresas listadas na B3. Para isso, foi realizada uma pesquisa quantitativa a partir da análise de regressão, onde testaram-se duas proxies de agressividade fiscal (BTD e TTVA). Os resultados permitem inferir que a presença de multinacionalidade está relacionada a menores níveis de agressividade fiscal, em média. No entanto, a presença de multinacionalidade relacionada a maiores níveis de ativos intangíveis gera maiores níveis de agressividade fiscal.
