Amending Sarbanes Oxley

Posted on Friday, March 2, 2007 at 06:05AM by Registered CommenterJ. Robert Brown | Comments1 Comment

The call for changes in SOX continue, with most wanting the provisions reduced in scope or eliminated.  In fact, provisions in SOX ought to be amended, but they should be to strengthen rather than weaken.  The post below from Professor O'Brien at the Daniels School of Business, University of Denver, points out more of the weaknesses in the whistleblowing provisions in contained in SOX.  Perhaps it is time for a legislative fix.

I'd be interested in hearing about what other provisions of SOX Professor Brown feels require strengthening (other than the whistleblower provisions).
