## Basis
- [Lei n.º 6.404/1976, compiled (Planalto, in Portuguese)](https://www.planalto.gov.br/ccivil_03/leis/l6404compilada.htm): article 122, item X, establishes that the general assembly has the exclusive authority to deliberate on transactions with related parties, or alienation/contribution of assets, when the transaction value exceeds 50% of the company's total assets as stated in the latest approved balance sheet.
- [Decreto n.º 9.580/2018 (Planalto, in Portuguese)](https://www.planalto.gov.br/ccivil_03/_ato2015-2018/2018/decreto/d9580.htm): regulates the taxation, inspection, collection, and administration of income tax and earnings of any kind.

## How it applies
The criterion applies to transactions with related parties, as well as to the alienation or contribution of assets to another company. The reference value is the company's total assets present in the most recent approved balance sheet. The percentage established by Lei 14.195/2021 is more than 50% of said amount.

## Limits
- The rule applies specifically to publicly held companies.
- This sheet does not exhaust all hypotheses of general assembly authority, being limited to the provisions of article 122, item X, of Lei 6.404/1976.
- Subsequent legislative changes that modify the percentages or authority criteria of the assembly must be verified directly in the updated regulations.
