Sarbanes-Oxley Manual

The Sarbanes-Oxley Manual is a comprehensive new desk reference explaining the Sarbanes-Oxley Act and all related SEC rulemaking to date. Building on the hugely successful title, Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002: Law and Explanation, this work delves further by discussing the multitude of ensuing rules, studies, and listing standards, and putting them all into perspective. The manual examines, among many other topics, the statutory and rule provisions governing: audit committees, auditor independence, certification of corporate reports, Section 16 insider reporting, Public Company Accounting Oversight Board composition and rules, attorney professional responsibility, analyst conflicts of interest, and management's assessment of internal controls. It also reproduces the full text of the Act.
