Marques, Ana Cristina Lino; Gomes Dos Santos, PaulaSistema de Normalização Contabilística para as Administrações Públicas (SNC-AP), publicado pelo Decreto-Lei n.o 192/2015, de 11 de setembro, propõe-se aumentar o alinhamento entre a contabilidade pública e as contas nacionais.

- The views of stakeholders on mandatory or voluntary use of a simplified standard on non-financial information for SMEs in the European UnionPublication . Gomes Dos Santos, Paula; Albuquerque, Fábio; Rodrigues, Maria Albertina; Almeida, Ana: This paper investigates the variables that may explain the views of stakeholders regarding the need for a simplified non-financial reporting (NFR) standard for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the European Union (EU) and whether this standard should be mandatory or voluntary. This paper uses, as a source, 588 answers provided by different groups of stakeholders within the process of public consultation conducted by the EU, from February to June 2020, concerning possible revisions to the provisions of the Directive on NFR. The findings showed that the most consensual attribute that probably explains the views of stakeholders on this matter is the importance attributed by them to the concepts of comparability, reliability, and relevance. From the stakeholders’ perspective, this topic may also be explained by the users’ needs. Notwithstanding, its importance may differ, depending on the type of user. These findings are relevant within the process of developing an NFR model applicable to SMEs based on a mandatory standard, providing evidence that regulators and standard-setters should consider the qualitative characteristics of non-financial information as well as the needs of various stakeholders within this process.
- Assessing the stakeholders’ responses in public discussions of IPSASB standards from a cultural perspectivePublication . Albuquerque, Fábio; Gomes Dos Santos, Paula; Penha, Eugênia Paiva da; Silva, DanielThis article assesses the factors that may explain stakeholders’ responses in public due processes carried out by the IPSASB. Seven ongoing projects were assessed, comprising 328 comment letters sent to IPSASB from 47 countries. The authors present a new approach which takes into account cultural values in public sector accounting and financial reporting. This article shows that factors that can explain stakeholders’ responses in public discussions of the International Public Sector Accounting Standards Board’s (IPSASB) standards may differ according to underlying cultural values. Respondents’ affiliation, countries’ level of development and their accounting framework can explain underlying cultural values. The article will help standard setters, governments and regulatory bodies to understand the differences in stakeholders’ positions according to the cultural nature of issues proposed for public discussion.

- Sustainability Assessment of Portuguese Local Governments (2009 to 2017): Accounting Information and Public GovernancePublication . Gomes Dos Santos, Paula; Martinho, CarlaPublic governance must ensure financial sustainability. This investigation aims to assess Portuguese local governments financial sustainability as the ability to service the upcoming obligations in commercial transactions (under the Late Payment Directive framework) and to study if accounting information enables public local governance with greater transparency and accountability about their financial sustainability. The study will focus on the 308 Portuguese local governments from 2009 to 2017. The number of local governments with average payment periods (PMPs) within 30 days had an increasing tendency. However, their adjusted average payment periods greatly exceed the 30 days, which means limited financial sustainability. In 2017, only 29% of the local governments have an adjusted PMP within 30 days against the 63% if it is used the officials PMPs. Therefore, accounting information does not enable public governance with greater transparency and accountability about Portuguese local government financial sustainability.
