Additionally, it incorporates illustrative case studies, such as the recent Lojas Americanas scandal, to contextualize and deepen the discussion. \u0000Results: The analysis reveals significant gaps in the legal protection and incentives for whistleblowers in Brazil, which contribute to an environment where fraudulent practices can persist due to insufficient reporting. The study identifies Bill No. 2581/2023 as a promising legislative initiative that outlines specific measures to protect whistleblowers. The bill is seen as crucial for developing a more ethical organizational culture, aligning Brazil with international anti-corruption practices, and improving the overall business environment. \u0000Conclusions: The proposed Bill No. 2581/2023, by addressing the deficiencies in legal protections and incentives for whistleblowers, has the potential to significantly enhance internal control mechanisms within companies, boost investor confidence, and foster a more stable and fair capital market. Effective whistleblower protection is essential for combating corporate fraud and fostering a transparent and ethical business environment in Brazil.","PeriodicalId":498804,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Law and Corruption Review","volume":"1 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141266743","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
