Este artigo utiliza uma amostra de firmas brasileiras de capital aberto no período de 1997 a 2001 para investigar a eficácia de mecanismos alternativos de governança corporativa. Os dados demonstram que as firmas podem se comprometer com a proteção aos acionistas minoritários através do lançamento de ADR Nível II ou com a presença no Novo Mercado. Em particular, firmas com ADR Nível II ou do Novo Mercado possuem maiores retornos em períodos de crise e distribuem mais lucros sobre forma de dividendos. O estudo mostra, no entanto, que as mudanças no direito societário afetam a eficácia dos contratos privados. Assim sendo, as firmas não podem transpor completamente a fraqueza no sistema legal brasileiro que prejudica os acionistas minoritários. This paper uses a sample of Brazilian firms in the period 1997 to 2001 to investigate the effectiveness of alternative corporate governance mechanisms. The data show that firms can commit to protect their minority shareholders by issuing Level II ADR' s or joining the Novo Mercado. In particular, firms with Level II ADRs and firms in the Novo Mercado have larger stock returns in times of turmoil, and they are more likely to pay dividends. The study shows, however, that changes in corporate law affect the ability of private contracts like ADRs to protect minority shareholders. As such, firms cannot completely overcome weaknesses in the Brazil's legal system that harm minority shareholders
