PERFIL DE INVESTIDOR E NÍVEL DE AVERSÃO AO RISCO: UMA ANÁLISE DOS ALUNOS DO CURSO DE GRADUAÇÃO EM CIÊNCIAS CONTÁBEIS DA ESAN/UFMS

Abstract

The present article aims to analyze the investment profile of students enrolled in the Accounting Sciences program at the School of Administration and Business (ESAN) at the Federal University of Mato Grosso do Sul (UFMS). The objective is to understand the level of risk aversion among these students and, among those who do not invest, to conduct an analysis of the reasons for their non-investment. Additionally, the study seeks to highlight whether there is a direct relationship between the decision not to invest and aversion to financial capital losses. Data collection will be carried out through the administration of a questionnaire to students actively enrolled in the Accounting Sciences program at ESAN/UFMS. The expected outcome is that this research will reveal the profile of the mentioned students as investors or potential investors.
