The fact that financial institutions run popular savings funds and the fact that they also represent an important link between several economic agents , enhances the importance of the performance and of the stability of the financial system. The activity of the financial institutions involve several risks which can lead to the insolvency and consequently the ruin of the popular savings. The use of transactions with derivatives by financial institutions as hedging of the operations themselves and for speculation, have become more popular over the years. Therefore it is of utmost importance to know risks those financial institutions run when they carry out said transactions and also how those risks are being dealt with, accounted for and evidenced to their clients. In this work we have tried to compare the accounting rules, apart from evidencing that transactions with derivatives have been carried out according to the international standards. The survey concluded that the Brazilian accounting system derived from the Brazilian Central Bank resembles those of IASB and FASB. Therefore it has been evidenced that those entities outside the scope of the Central Bank, do not possess accounting rules which deal adequately with operations with derivatives. / O prop??sito deste trabalho ?? pesquisar e comparar as normas cont??beis emanadas do FASB (Financial Accounting Standards Board), IASB (International Accounting Standards Board) e do Banco Central do Brasil aplicadas a derivativos. O fato de as institui????es financeiras administrarem recursos da poupan??a popular e de representarem importante elo entre os diversos agentes econ??micos faz com que o desempenho e a estabilidade do sistema financeiro assumam particular relev??ncia, pois a atividade das institui????es financeiras envolve diversos riscos, que podem resultar na sua insolv??ncia e, conseq??entemente, na destrui????o de poupan??a popular. A utiliza????o de opera????es com derivativos pelas institui????es financeiras, que s??o realizadas para fins de hedging das pr??prias opera????es e para especula????o, t??m se acentuado nos ??ltimos anos. Portanto, conhecer os riscos a que essas entidades est??o expostas ao fazerem essas opera????es e como tais riscos est??o sendo gerenciados, contabilizados e evidenciados aos usu??rios ?? de suma import??ncia. Procurou-se no presente trabalho, al??m de comparar as normas cont??beis, efetuar a constata????o de que as opera????es com derivativos das institui????es financeiras brasileiras est??o seguindo o tratamento cont??bil, julgado adequado, pelos principais organismos internacionais normatizadores de regras cont??beis. A pesquisa conclui que o arcabou??o cont??bil brasileiro emanado do Banco Central do Brasil, possui grande similaridade com as normas do IASB e FASB. Por??m, constatou-se que as entidades fora do ??mbito de atua????o do Banco Central n??o possuem normas cont??beis que d??em tratamento adequado ??s opera????es com derivativos.
