This work of course completion has as a general objective to analyze the instrument of business ethics and its reflections in the Brazilian context, and specifically, to identify concepts related to business ethics, to verify the incidence of this instrument in Brazil and to verify the challenges pertinent to the theme, as well as , the relevance of it. Elaborated, as regards the method of approach, by the deductive method; as far as the methods of procedure are concerned, a comparative and historical-evolutionary study is used, as far as research techniques are concerned, through the use of bibliographical and documentary research. Having as a problem, the fact that the absence of ethical precepts in corporations is a great challenge faced in society, so understanding them so as to make them inserted in it is necessary. In this way, it is very important to analyze and understand the terms: ethics and business communication, as well as the legal prediction pertinent to this topic, for example, the recent Anti-Corruption Law (Law 12.846 / 2013). The relevance that codes of ethics have achieved over the years is verified, in addition to observing and understanding under what circumstances their use is relevant. There are situations of applicability and inapplicability of business ethics, with emphasis on the performance of compliance and its areas of activity.

Therefore, the understanding of this theme and the search for ethical practices to be present in the most different social spheres will result in significant changes in the Brazilian scenario.
