Resumo: The capital markets development requires a greater disclosure level of financial information in order to provide greater transparency to investors. This fact has led companies to increase their disclosure levels. However, there is no consensus on the information detail level and their best presentation, as well as the standards to be adopted. This study intend to examine the differences in the information disclosed in the Management Report and Explanatory Notes in relation to the Form 20-F. The goal of this research is to identify the adherence level between the financial information disclosed by Brazilian companies which have shares traded in São Paulo Stock Exchange  (BOVESPA) and New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) in 2007. The sample consisted of sixteen Brazilian companies of several sectors: industrial goods; construction and transportation; cyclical consumption; non-cyclical consumption; basic materials and oil, gas and fuels. The data were subjected to content analysis and categorized into four groups with different characteristics. The results show, in general, low adherence level between the disclosed information in Brazil in relation to the United States. It was concluded that the level of corporate governance of those companies is not related to a greater disclosure when comparing the information provided to the Brazilian and North American markets.

O desenvolvimento do mercado de capitais requer maior nível de evidenciação de informações financeiras a fim de propiciar maior transparência aos investidores. Tal fato tem conduzido as companhias a aumentarem os níveis de disclosure. Entretanto, não há consenso sobre o nível de detalhamento da informação e a melhor forma de apresentação dessas, bem como sobre os padrões a serem adotados. Neste artigo verificam-se as diferenças das informações evidenciadas no Relatório da Administração e Notas Explicativas em relação ao Formulário 20-F. Assim, o objetivo da pesquisa consiste em identificar o nível de aderência entre as informações financeiras divulgadas por companhias brasileiras de capital aberto com ações negociadas na Bolsa de Valores de São Paulo (BOVESPA) e na New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) no ano de 2007. Compuseram a amostra 16 empresas brasileiras dos setores: bens industriais; construção e transporte; consumo cíclico; consumo não-cíclico; materiais básicos e petróleo, gás e combustíveis. Os dados foram submetidos à análise de conteúdo e categorizados em quatro grupos com características distintas. Os resultados mostram, em geral, baixo nível de aderência entre as informações divulgadas no Brasil em relação aos Estados Unidos. Conclui-se que o nível de governança corporativa em que essas se encontram não está relacionado a maior evidenciação quando se comparam as  informações prestadas aos  mercados brasileiro e norte-americano.Universidade Regional de Blumenau2011-04-20info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://ojsrevista.furb.br/ojs/index.php/universocontabil/article/view/174610.4270/ruc.20117Revista Universo Contábil; v. 7 n. 1 (2011); 06-191809-33371809-3337reponame:Revista Universo Contábilinstname:Universidade Regional de Blumenau (FURB)instacron:FURBporhttps://ojsrevista.furb.br/ojs/index.php/universocontabil/article/view/1746/1521Copyright (c) 2014 Revista Universo Contábilinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessDias, Warley OliveiraRodrigues, Luciana AlvesColauto, Romualdo Douglas2011-04-29T09:19:51Zoai:ojs.bu.furb.br:article/1746Revistahttps://proxy.furb.br/ojs/index.php/universocontabil/PUBhttps://proxy.furb.br/ojs/index.php/universocontabil/oai||universocontabil@furb.br1809-33371809-3337opendoar:2011-04-29T09:19:51Revista Universo Contábil - Universidade Regional de Blumenau (FURB)false
