GOVERNANÇA CORPORATIVA NO SETOR FINANCEIRO: UM ESTUDO SOBRE OS PERFIS DOS DIRIGENTES DAS MAIORES INSTITUIÇÕES FINANCEIRAS DO BRASIL

Abstract

This study aims to analyze the profiles of the executives of the five largest financial institutions in Brazil, considering the members of the boards of directors and executive boards. The methodology used was descriptive and bibliographic, with a quantitative and qualitative approach. The selection of the largest Brazilian financial institutions investigated in this study was carried out by identifying and ranking the five with the highest and best performance in assets and profits in the first quarter of 2024. The study revealed differences among the analyzed institutions, such as the size of boards and executive teams, the prominence of some institutions due to professional experience and academic background, as well as others that demonstrate strong internal talent retention and greater regional diversity. The analysis also showed progress in female representation, although still below the ideal level. It is concluded that the profiles of the executives reflect the unique characteristics of each corporate governance model adopted by them.
