The objective of this study is to evaluate if the usage of derivative financial instruments by non-financial Brazilian public Companies, mainly on 2011 (which totalizes 263 Companies), is correlated with earnings management practice. The first step consists into perform some research of the usage of derivative financial instruments (history, products, prior research), as well as some research about earnings management practices (main definitions, incentives, identification methods). After that, some empiric tests are applied, which mainly consisted of some tests of comparison of means and logistic regression between quantitative information of Companies (like as total of assets, total of foreign debts and so on), concluding that the non-financial Brazilian public Companies which contracted derivative financial instruments on 2011 is similar with prior research made on this subject (on Brazilian scenario or not). However, the positive association between usage of derivative financial instruments and earnings management were not obtained. There is no evidence that supports that Companies with more probability of practicing earnings management are the same Companies with more usage of derivative financial instruments.
