摘要
This article evaluates the technical efficiency in Brazilian telecommunications after privatization by comparing the relative efficiency scores for July 1998 and December 1999, obtained by means of Data Envelopment Analysis methodology. The main result indicated that no differential levels of efficiency could be detected across the two periods. Moreover there was evidence of a decreasing returns to scale pattern in 1999.
