Description:  

There are so many provisions that emanate from the Sarbanes-Oxley Act that compliance has too often become a “check the box” exercise. Deepening your understanding of the origins of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act can improve decision-making about your company’s compliance with the Act.

Join Morrison & Foerster for an hour-long webcast that will provide you with an understanding of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as well as the pitfalls and challenges in implementing a compliance program. There have been many lessons learned since the Sarbanes-Oxley Act emerged six years ago and this program will explore how those lessons can help you implement best practices. The program will cover such specifics as:

• Why so many rules and regulations?
• Who needs to be involved in your company?
• How do you evaluate and improve your controls?
• What can you expect from your auditor?
• What are the costs of implementation?
