We investigate whether improvement in Brazilian corporate governance practices is related to better performance of companies measured in its diverse dimensions. Dummy variables were used to identify firms with level 2 or 3 ADR programs and to represent participation in level 2 or the "new market" level of differentiated practices of corporate governance established by the São Paulo Stock Exchange. Significant statistical relationships were obtained for both dummy variables in relation to the performance measures, suggesting that the adhesion to programs which require improved corporate governance practices is associated with corporate performance.

We rely on the corporate governance index developed by the Report on Business (ROB) in 2002. Our empirical results are consistent with the expropriation effect argument that predicts a negative relation between deviation from the one share-one vote rule and corporate governance best practices. In this context, the dominant shareholder has incentives to maintain weak internal controls in order to facilitate expropriation. In addition, consistent with prior research, our results give partial support to the substitution effect argument by showing a negative impact of ownership concentration on the bo...
