The honesty you expect in your small businesses, or in your workplaces, in your community
or in your home, will be expected and enforced in every corporate suite in this country
George W. Bush,
30
July
2002
So the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) came into being as a mandatory requirement for all listed
corporations in the USA. Revelation of the specifics of this overwhelmingly comprehensive
legislation shocked the international business community due to the intensity of its long term
gaze. For SOX is not a one time blip on corporate radar screens, it s a new and ongoing,
growing and developing way of conducting business. As feedback accumulates, legislators,
bureaucrats, watchdogs, professional associations and international and global groups continue
to refine the processes and standards for both satisfying the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley
Act and clarifying the standards both for general corporate behaviour and more specifically for
accounting and auditing professions.
This new book goes beyond the implementation phase of SOX and looks at both the reaction to
the Act, among prominent financial, government and business leaders, and the effect it has had
and will continue to have economically in terms of costs, benefits and business impacts.
Convergence is the big buzzword; governments and multinational corporations are striving to
reach international agreement in order to produce a set of transnationally/universally applicable
accounting rules and regulations.
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act has forced public corporations into the realm of greater transparency and
accountability in terms of the provision of
100%
reliable financial reporting. Whilst its
introduction is generally approved it is thought that SOX was introduced a little hastily and needs
tweaking to ease the pain. Thus whilst it has been somewhat successful, the cost (well over a
trillion dollars) might be considered by some to be too high a price to pay for the gains.
This book is essential reading for senior managers in the business and financial/accounting
communities and follows on from the author s first book The Sarbane-Oxley Act: Overview and
Implementation Procedures. Michaei F. Holt, probes business leaders, brokers and financial
consultants, auditing firm heads, CEOs and CFOs of large and small corporations thus producing
a comprehensive review of SOX s impact on business, economics and governments since its
inception in
2002.
