Why have there have been so many business scandals mentioned in the media over the past few years? Have companies simply gotten worse, or have people become more sophisticated in identifying improper activity? What is the role of the Accountant? Sarbanes-Oxley, for example, has placed much more responsibility on the CEO and corporate officers? Are there additional laws that should be considered to ensure these scandals do not continue to occur? Should non-executives be held liable for corporate wrongdoing?
