Management of Internal Controls

We strive to ensure, in our companies, a strong and constantly improving control environment, in compliance with internal and external regulatory aspects.
 

As our shares are traded on the New York Stock Exchange, we need to comply with the regulations and pass inspection by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), which is the equivalent of the Securities and Exchange Commission (CVM) in the United States. Our control environment must be certified as compliant with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX), which means carrying out an analysis of existing internal controls and submitting it to independent evaluation by external auditors. Thus, a Form 20-F must be filed annually with the SEC, containing management's word on the internal control environment of our companies.
