Auditing and Its Regulators: Proposals for Reform After Enron (open access)

Auditing and Its Regulators: Proposals for Reform After Enron

Auditors are regulated by both governmental agencies and professional organizations, though many now question whether this oversight is adequate.

A federal jury convicted the firm on obstruction of justice charges on June 15, 2002. Other corporations and their auditors are also under scrutiny. Numerous accounting and audit reforms have been proposed, including some by the accounting industry. The House passed an audit reform bill (H.R. 3763) on April 24, 2002. The Senate passed an amended version of its bill (S. 2673) on July 15th. The SEC published proposed reform rules June 26th; on the 28th it required top executives in companies with revenues exceeding $1.2 billion to personally certify that filed reports are complete and accurate

The program is voluntary until then. USDA on October 8, 2002, issued guidelines for the voluntary labeling program.
