To conduct our study, we focused on two countries that reflect different types of institutional environment: relation-based (Brazil) and rule-based (Spain). Based on our results, we can affirm that the institutional environment influences CG mechanisms (Board Size and Reference Shareholder) as well as companies’ CSR disclosure. Additio- nally, the CG mechanisms affected by the institutional environment also help to explain differences in CSR reporting practices. As relation-based societies evolve into rules-based environments, the informa- tion disclosed about CSR becomes more complex due to a strengthening of CG mechanisms. 2016 artículo científico 0034-7590 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=155148577005 https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1551/155148577005/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1551/155148577005/html/ https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1551/155148577005/155148577005.epub https://www.redalyc.org/journal/1551/155148577005/movil en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=1551 RAE - Revista de Administração de Empresas application/pdf Fundação Getulio Vargas RAE - Revista de Administração de Empresas (Brasil) Num.6 Vol.56
