        Abstract

        The paper analyses the financial fragility of Brazilian open-capital non-financial enterprises between 2010 and 2016 according to the typology suggested by
        Minsky (1992). Applying the methodology from Bacic (1990), the profile of 19 of the 20
        economic sectors listed by the Economatica software was analyzed. Concerning the
        selected period, which was characterized by the reduction of commodities prices, currency depreciation, deceleration of economic growth at the global and domestic levels,
        and worsening of the financial sources, it was possible to identify a reduction of firms
        in hedge position and an increase in the number of speculative and ponzi enterprises. However, there are specific sectorial patterns that suggest that some sectors are more
        resilient than others. This analysis supports the conclusion that, during the reversal of
        economic cycle, the overall financial fragility of open-capital enterprises increased.
