Summary/Abstract: Publication of a semi-annual management statement, according to the EU Transparency Directive, is mandatory for all listed companies in EU member states, while the originally defined obligation to present this report on a quarterly basis was abolished by amendments to this Directive in 2011. Analyzing the legislation and information published by issuers in Southeast Europe, on a sample of 225 companies from nine different countries, it could be concluded that the publication of a semi-annual management statement is mandatory in Bulgaria, Montenegro, Croatia, Romania, Northern Macedonia, Slovenia and Serbia, but not in Bosnia and Herzegovina. Almost all companies that submitted this report did so within the deadlines defined for the submission of interim financial statements and usually in such a way that both, the management statement and the financial statements, are a single document. However, in terms of the content of the interim management statement, there are significant variations, both between the observed countries and between the observed companies within the same countries.
