The descriptive, documentary and quantitative research analyzed data from 344 companies listed on BM & FBOVESPA from 1998 to 2014. The analysis was performed through panel data regression, testing the hypotheses that the Compensation Package of the managers, the Level of Indebtedness and the Size of the company affect the Republication of the Financial Statements. It was observed that the size, growth of assets, being audited by a Big4 and the adoption of IFRS had a positive and statistically significant effect on the probability of republishing the statements. On the other hand, the adoption of SOX, NivGov has negative and statistically significant effects. |
