Abstract

This study aims to identify the perceptions of executives from Brazilian companies traded and closed on obstacles for the adherence to good corporate governance practices. Therefore, a structured questionnaire was sent to 516 companies. We concluded that the perceptions of executives from Brazilian companies traded and closed differ with respect to amounts allocated; being most of the obstacles (ten out of thirteen) in adhering to good corporate governance practices. What could possibly be explained, is that the fact of a group having already gone through the process or have already duly joined this practice and not the other.
