Instigated on the heels of the large corporate financial scandals involving Enron, WorldCom, Global Crossing and Arthur Andersen, The Sarbanes-Oxley Act represents a monumental change in securities laws. Effective in 2004, all publicly-traded companies are required to submit an annual report of the effectiveness of their internal accounting controls to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), and the penalties for non-compliance span from criminal to civil, and affect all companies doing business in the United States.
The challenge of course is interpreting the regulation properly to measure your company’s exposure and prepare a reasonable strategy for achieving compliance.
Our Information Compliance Framework removes the guess-work and empowers our customers by putting them on the fast track to compliance. You don’t have to be an expert in the law if you have our proven framework that guides you through a rapid interpretation and assessment.
