Resumo: This article reviews the recent academic literature on earnings management (EM) in Brazil. The objective is to identify the main research themes addressed in the Brazilian context and the results of interest to users and preparers of financial statements. It is hoped that this study will also be useful to researchers considering investigating the theme of earnings management, by providing an overview of the main discussions and methods usually employed. As a topic for academic research, earnings management is diversified and extensive, although relatively recent. The majority of Brazilian studies have been published in the past ten years, with a significant increase in academic production more recently, making this an opportune moment to reflect on the state of the art, summarize the evolution of knowledge and propose future research avenues.

O seu objetivo é identificar os principais temas de pesquisa desenvolvidos no contexto do Brasil e os resultados de interesse para usuários, reguladores e preparadores das demonstrações financeiras. Almeja-se que este estudo seja também util a pesquisadores considerando investigar o tema gerenciamento de resultados, na medida em que propicia uma visão abrangente das principais discussões travadas e as metodologias mais usualmente empregadas. Enquanto tema de pesquisa acadêmica, o gerenciamento de resultados revela-se num tópico diversificado e vasto, embora relativamente recente. A maioria dos estudos brasileiros no assunto foi publicada nos últimos dez anos e a produção científica tem se acelerado recentemente, o que torna oportuno uma reflexão sobre o estado da arte, esboçando a evolução do conhecimento e caminhos a serem trilhados no futuro.FUCAPE Business Shool2013-10-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionPeer-reviewed ArticleArtigo revisado pelos paresapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttp://www.bbronline.com.br/index.php/bbr/article/view/18310.15728/bbr.2013.10.4.1Brazilian Business Review; Vol. 10 No. 4 (2013): October to December 2013; 1-29Brazilian Business Review; v. 10 n. 4 (2013): Outubro a Dezembro de 2013; 1-291808-23861807-734Xreponame:BBR.
