What is Sarbanes Oxley?
We will start our
journey from... the start.
SOX, SarbOx, and
even the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 are the "easy to remember"
names. The official name of the Act is: The
Public Company Accounting Reform and Investor Protection Act of
2002.
It is a United
States federal law enacted on July 30,
2002 in response to a number of scandals that include Enron and WorldCom. It was named after Senator Paul
Sarbanes (D-MD)...
... and
Representative Michael G. Oxley (R-OH).
President George W.
Bush signed the Act into law.
He said:
''The era of low
standards and false profits is over''
''No boardroom in
America is above or beyond the law.''
''Free markets are
not a jungle in which only the unscrupulous survive, or a financial
free-for-all guided only by greed''
''For the sake of
our free economy, those who break the law -- break the rules of
fairness, those who are dishonest, however wealthy or successful
they may be -- must pay a price''
The Act was
approved by the House by a vote of 423-3 and by the Senate
99-0
