Summary: | This study verified the existence of a non-linear relationship between diversification and the performance of Brazilian credit unions by analyzing panel data from 455 credit unions from June 2012 to December 2019. Through three regression models, estimated by the Systemic Generalized Method of Moments, it was identified that diversification has a non-linear U-shaped relationship with performance. This result demonstrates the existence of a minimum point for diversification, from which increases in diversification of financial products would provide positive effects on performance. This study stands out for bringing a curvilinear model for diversification in credit unions. This finding facilitates the understanding of which level of diversification is beneficial for the performance of credit unions, in addition to favoring the formation of strategies and analysis of the implementation of new financial products in credit unions. KEYWORDS Inverted U; curvilinear relationship; Systemic GMM Este estudo verificou a existencia de uma relacao nao linear entre a diversificacao e o desempenho das cooperativas de credito brasileiras ao analisar dados em painel de 455 cooperativas de credito no periodo de junho de 2012 a dezembro de 2019. Por meio de tres modelos de regressao, estimados pelo Metodo dos Momentos Generalizado Sistemico, identificou-se que a diversificacao possui uma relacao nao linear com o desempenho, na forma de U. Esse resultado demonstra a existencia de um ponto minimo para a diversificacao, a partir do qual aumentos na diversificacao de produtos financeiros proporcionariam efeitos positivos no desempenho. Este estudo se destaca por trazer um modelo curvilineo para a diversificacao em cooperativas de credito. Tal achado facilita o entendimento de qual nivel de diversificacao e benefico para o desempenho das cooperativas, alem de poder favorecer a formacao de estrategias e analises de implementacao de novos produtos financeiros nas cooperativas de credito.
