Em maio de 1869, a Caixa de Crédito Industrial, instituição bancária fundada em Lisboa nesse mesmo ano, deu à estampa o primeiro número do seu boletim informativo. Iniciou-se, assim, em Portugal, a chamada «imprensa empresarial», entendida como o conjunto de publicações periódicas de carácter jornalístico editadas pelas empresas (industriais, comerciais e de serviços) para comunicar com os seus diferentes públicos, desde trabalhadores e colaboradores até acionistas, clientes, fornecedores e revendedores.

«OPEN BUDGET SURVEY 2015»

«(...)
The Three Pillars of Budget Accountability: Transparency, Participation, and Oversight Transparency is an important condition for ensuring a full budget discussion and appropriate budget monitoring is able to take place. It is not, however, a sufficient one. Creating the conditions under which governments are consistently held to account for managing public funds efficiently and effectively also requires establishing meaningful opportunities for citizens and civil society to participate in the budget process; and requires strong formal oversight from the legislature and the national audit office (referred to hereafter as the “supreme audit institution”).
 
Budget transparency, public participation in the budget process, and strong formal oversight institutions need to work together to create a robust budget accountability ecosystem. Without comprehensive budget information, formal oversight institutions and civil society cannot monitor budget policy design and implementation. Without adequate access to formal and informal spaces to influence the budget, the public is not empowered to expose government decision makers to a diversity of views to help ensure that budget policies are based on full information and reflect national priorities. Finally, without adequate authority, scope, and resources, formal oversight institutions cannot effectively carry out their mandates and ensure that public funds are collected and spent in the manner that was intended.

Absence of, or weakness in, any of these three core elements undercuts the functioning of the entire accountability system, making it less likely that budget policies reflect a nation’s needs and priorities and more likely that there will be corruption and mismanagement of public funds. But when these components are in place, policy is more likely to be matched with public resources, and these resources are more likely be spent as intended – and tackling some of the world’s toughest challenges comes into reach.
So if the goal of holding governments to account for the use of public funds is to be realized, systematic changes need to advance not just transparency but also participation and formal oversight. The Open Budget Survey explores all three of these dimensions. (...)».
