REGULATION OF THE INTERSTATE COACH SERVICES IN BRAZIL Alexandre de Ávila Gomide Institute of Applied Economic Research (IPEA) Francisco Giusepe Donato Martins Brazilian Audit Office (TCU)

Motivation The studies carried out by the Brazilian Audit Office (TCU) presents economic concentration in the interstate and international coach services in Brazil. That concentration is a result of the current regulatory barriers to the entry of potential competitors in the market, may not be helping to promote economic efficiency and users’ welfare.

Paper’s purpose This paper aims to discuss the economic regulation of the interstate and international coach services in Brazil, underscoring the need to promote competitiveness in the sector. Thus, principles and guidelines are suggested towards an agenda to update the regulation of the activity, bearing in mind three main objectives, namely those of equity in access, continuity of the services, and reduced fares.

Justify government intervention in the Coach Services Coach services couldn’t be considered a natural monopoly, neither can it be seen as a network industry. Moreover, this service does not generate externalities that justify the regulation of price and quantity. The rational behind state regulation of the Coach services is due to social reasons and to reasons of national unity and integration, rather than reasons of economic efficiency.

Coach services: an overview Brazilian Audit Office (TCU, 2004) reveal that the regulation of Coach services has proved to be fairly strict, preventing competition within the market and for the market, particularly due to the demands imposed on those willing to participate in the public bidding and to the parameters set for the services.

Coach services: an overview

Recommendations for a pro-competitiveness reform Promoting higher competitiveness for the market through public bidding Promoting higher competitiveness on the market, for commercial services Ensuring universal access to the system, national unity, and regional integration Emphasis on the monitoring and control of performance in services Strengthening of participation and social control (accountability)
