description Banks are allowed to employ debt instruments in order to meet the minimum requirements of capital, as long as they comply with the subordination agreements as determined by the Basel Accords. This paper takes account of the effective powers of these instruments, viewed from the standpoint of the investors, and seeks to assess their impact on the return on investments in the shares of the issuing banks within Brazil’s capital markets.
