摘要
December, 2010 was set as the reference date for Brazilian' companies to move their financial statements to IFRS (International Financial Reporting Standards). However, we have observed that part of these companies has voluntarily anticipated such requirement. Thus, it seems relevant to establish the following question: Which factors can determine voluntary IFRS adoption? We have investigated how variables related to capital structure, company size, corporate governance and performance could influence the company's decision to voluntarily adopt IFRS. Our results have shown that larger firms and better managed ones tend to offer more information to the market. Furthermore, we have found evidences that, companies with a higher degree of properties tend to adopt IFRS, trying to demonstrate the real value of their properties to the market.
