description In our increasingly globalized world, Multinational Enterprises (MNEs) frequently employ profit-shifting (PS) tactics, diverting taxable profits to low-tax jurisdictions. Despite the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development's (OECD) ongoing efforts to address PS through the establishment of an international minimum tax, assessing the potential contributions of Social Accounting to illuminate genuine corporate tax compliance remains crucial. The recent adoption of Standard 207-4 by the Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) signifies a notable advancement in this regard, mandating comprehensive Country-by-Country Reporting (CbCR) and offering promise for increased transparency. This study aims to evaluate the efficacy of Standard 207-4 in enhancing both the volume and quality of tax-related data segmented by countries, particularly in addressing the PS phenomenon. The paper undertakes a concise review of relevant literature, followed by an exposition of the methodological framework, including various research decisions. Subsequently, it outlines the procedure for case selection and expounds upon the analysis of MNE reports conforming to the stipulations outlined in Standard 207-4. Preliminary analysis suggests a limited impact of Standard 207-4 in improving the quality and quantity of tax-related information provided by MNEs, primarily due to the absence of reports and incomplete information. The conclusion underscores the inherent limitations of the preliminary findings and proposes future research avenues to address these shortcomings. This study contributes to the ongoing discourse on tax transparency within MNEs and informs potential regulatory and reporting framework enhancements.

Apesar dos esforços contínuos da Organização para a Cooperação e Desenvolvimento Econômico (OCDE) para abordar o DL através do estabelecimento de um imposto mínimo internacional, avaliar as potenciais contribuições da Contabilidade Social para iluminar a conformidade tributária corporativa genuína continua sendo essencial. A recente adoção da Norma GRI 207-4 representa um avanço significativo nesse sentido, ao exigir um Relatório País a País (RPP) para uma maior transparência. Este estudo tem como objetivo avaliar a eficácia apresentada pela Norma 207-4 em aprimorar tanto o volume quanto a qualidade dos dados fiscais segmentados por países providos pelas EMNs, especialmente no que diz respeito ao fenômeno do DL. O artigo realiza uma revisão sucinta da literatura relevante, seguida de uma exposição do quadro metodológico, que inclui diversas decisões de pesquisa e expõe a seguir os resultados iniciais. A análise preliminar sugere um impacto limitado da Norma 207-4 na melhoria da qualidade e quantidade das informações fiscais fornecidas pelas EMNs, principalmente devido à falta de relatórios e à provisão de informação incompleta.  A conclusão destaca as limitações inerentes dos resultados preliminares e propõe futuras linhas de pesquisa para abordar essas deficiências. Este estudo contribui para o debate em curso sobre transparência fiscal dentro das EMNs e informa possíveis aprimoramentos nos marcos regulatórios e de relatórios.
