Abstract(s)
As concentrações de atividades empresariais assumem cada vez mais um papel preponderante
na sociedade globalizada. Em Portugal, em ou depois de 1 de Janeiro de 2005 todas as
empresas cotadas em bolsa passaram a adotar a International Financial Reporting Standard 3
(IFRS 3) no tratamento contabilístico das concentrações das atividades empresariais, o que
impôs também novas exigências às empresas no que diz respeito à divulgação e transparência
dessa informação. Este estudo tem como principal objetivo analisar o nível de divulgação de
informação requerida pela IFRS 3 das empresas que integram o índice PSI 20 (Portuguese
Stock Index), no período 2009-2015 e analisar sem em termos de Certificação Legal das
Contas (CLC) é evidenciada alguma opinião modificativa nesta matéria. A metodologia
adotada consistiu na análise de conteúdo aos Relatórios e Contas Consolidados das empresas
da amostra para o período em análise. Os principais resultados obtidos revelam um nível
reduzido de divulgação de informação no que diz respeito aos itens exigidos pela IFRS 3 no
período analisado e não são evidenciadas inconformidades em termos da CLC.
Business combinations are assuming an increasingly important role in global society. In Portugal, since 1st January 2005, all listed companies adopted the International Financial Reporting Standard 3 (IFRS 3). This accounting standard sets out the definitions and requirements to be given by entities about business combinations and which also imposed new requirements on companies with regard to disclosure and transparency. This study aims to examine the level of disclosure required by IFRS 3 for the 20 PSI listed companies, during the period between 2009 and 2015. It is also our purpose to verify if Legal Certification of Accounts evidence conformity on this matter. The methodology adopted consisted of the content analysis of the Consolidated Reports and Accounts of the sample companies for the period under analysis. Main results reveal a low level of information disclosure regarding the items required by the IFRS 3 and there is no evidence of non-compliance in terms of the CLC.
