Introduction of DQ2
The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 was landmark legislation that tried to protect investors, shareholders, and ultimately employees from firms and their management that issued fraudulent or misleading financial statements to the public. SOX has many Sections, all of which have now generally been fully implemented and tested in business, in the field, and in the courts since that date. Many senior executives found guilty of violating various Sections of SOX have been jailed and are still in jail as a result of their violations of SOX. Ultimately, our free-market principles are compromised and tested when firms issue fraudulent or misleading financial statements which result in either unfair or illegal profits being earned by the management of these firms or hurt investors.
