This information, to become more accessible and consistent, seek to obey the universal rules; that means that the same level of information contained in a accounting statement, an entity in Brazil, tends to be evidenced in the accounting statements of entities in other countries considering the international accounting standards. In Brazil, the changes introduced by the federal nº 11.638/07 and 11.941/09, in relation to Law nº 6.404/76, are intended to clarify and clear the contents of this information. The semi-public companies are governed by the said legislation, in accordance with the your way of constitution, although they are also subject to legislation that govern the public administration for having significant participation in the public budget. The research was aimed at analyzing the changes in corporate law, and possible implications for the disclosure of accounting statements in semi-public companies.

The methodology used was literature and documentary, as well as a case study in the Bank of Northeast Brazil, with application interview with the Director of Environment Accounting and questionnaires with the servers of the Superintendency of Financial and Capital Markets. By analyzing the financial statements of the entity object of study, notes that the Bank of Northeast Brazil, in fiscal 2008, did not show the classification of groups of balance sheet accounts established by the Provisional Measure nº 449/08, converted by Law nº 11.941/09.
