In Brazil, plain financial statements are commonly used by small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) for internal management and informal lending purposes. In the USA, the distinction between plain, compiled, reviewed, and audited financial statements is more formalized in accounting standards (AICPA). Plain financial statements do not carry professional assurance and therefore carry higher risk for external stakeholders, which is why they are typically used for internal purposes rather than public or regulatory reporting.
