The objective of this work is to analyze the headquarters-subsidiary relation of a multinational company in the segment of cosmetics located in Brazil. In order to reach this objective, a revision of the literature on the international business area subject was carried, since this work aims to understand the different factors that influence the role of the subsidiaries in relation to the headquarters and to the markets they are installed. From this literature, some typologies were selected for the empirical analysis inside the selected company. The methodology used is a single case of study split in two sub-units of analysis, the subsidiary and the headquarters. For a better understanding of the research result, the characteristics of the multinational in the world, of the Brazilian cosmetic market and of the subsidiary are presented. This last one was divided in description of the operations, autonomy in relation to the headquarters and strategy. Finally, an analysis of the results combined with the literature explored in the typology is done, as well as an analysis in relation to the other authors not selected in the typology, but who were also considered in this work. The conclusion of this work makes possible to confirm that the subsidiary has no international responsibility and low autonomy in relation to its headquarters.
