RESUMO

Experimentation and tests using physical prototypes or computer simulation are practices used in the development of various industrial products. The aeronautical, automobile, mechanical, naval, petroleum and micro-electronics industries have been using one or both of the mentioned techniques for a very long time. However, this issue has not been studied in detail in the banking area. The aim of this research is to describe and interpret the experimentation modes currently used in the Brazilian financial market in order to propose new procedures to develop investment funds akin to the industrial process. The proposed methodology was tested using 4 years of real data of the Brazilian financial market in order to develop a fictional investment fund based on Dynamic Systems and Artificial Intelligence (genetic algorithms) simulation principles. The results strengthen the possible analogy between the development of tangible industrial products and intangible services and propose new concepts according to an innovative development methodology for financial products. The related optimization problem represents a new field of application for Dynamic Systems combined with intelligent algorithms and, particularly, the Genetic Algorithms (GA) based model provided an efficient decision-making tool to be used in a competitive and globalized environment.
