Abstract(s)
As empresas com títulos cotados em bolsa são obrigadas a cumprir um conjunto de
requisitos de divulgação de informação sobre o risco que resultam, entre outras, das
imposições da Comissão de Mercado de Valores Mobiliários e das regras contabilísticas,
em particular da IFRS 7 (Norma Internacional de Relato Financeiro – Instrumentos
Financeiros: Divulgação de Informações).
Através da análise dos relatórios e contas do ano de 2010 das empresas que, em 19
de Março de 2012, integravam o PSI20, pretende-se verificar o cumprimento da divulgação
de informação, especificamente, no que diz respeito à divulgação do risco de mercado.
Aborda-se, também, a problemática da divulgação voluntária. Recorrendo ao método da
análise de conteúdo, analisou-se o nível de divulgação de informação por tipo de risco de
mercado, numa perspectiva qualitativa e quantitativa, e se as empresas divulgam a
utilização de instrumentos de cobertura para minimizar esses riscos. Verificou-se que, na
sua grande maioria, as empresas cumprem os requisitos da IFRS 7, que a informação sobre
o risco de taxa de juro é a mais observada e que, em geral, utilizam instrumentos derivados
para minimizar os riscos de mercado.
It is compulsory for listed companies to fulfil a set of requirements about information risk disclosure. That happens, among other reasons, because of the impositions of Comissão de Mercado de Valores Mobiliários and the accounting rules, particularly the IFRS 7 (International Financial Reporting Standards – Financial Instruments: Disclosures). By analyzing the 2010 annual accounts of the companies that, on March the 19th, 2012 integrated the PSI20, we try to verify compliance with information disclosure, specifically regarding market risk information disclosure. The voluntary disclosure issue was, also, addressed. Using the content analysis method, we analyzed the information disclosure level by market risk type, in both qualitative and quantitative perspectives, and whether companies disclose the use of hedging instruments to minimize these risks. It was found that the great majority of the companies fulfil IFRS 7 requirements, that the information about interest rate risk is the most observed and, in general, that they use derivative instruments to mitigate market risks.
