 More than three years since the passage of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act ("the Act"), corporate America is still wrestling with many unanswered questions. Some of these relate to the Act itself. Others relate to increasing SEC activity, both in terms of new rules and enforcement proceedings. To help companies answer these questions and comply with their new obligations, Kirkpatrick & Lockhart Nicholson Graham LLP and Aspen Publishers are pleased to announce the 2nd Edition of Sarbanes-Oxley Act: Planning & Compliance.
Written as a resource for corporate counsel, compliance professionals and lawyers in private practice, but also interest to chief financial and operating officers and corporate board members, Sarbanes-Oxley Act: Planning & Compliance provides practical guidance on developments in:
- CEO and CFO Responsibilities and Certifications
- SEC Disclosure Rules
- Directors’ Responsibilities and Liabilities
- The Increasing Role of the Audit Committee
- The Role of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board
- Pension Plan Blackout Periods and Reporting of Senior Executive and Director Stock Transactions
- Prohibitions on Loans to Directors and Officers
- Expanding Standards of Professional Conduct for Attorneys, and
- New Criminal Penalties and SEC Enforcement Tools
We believe that Sarbanes-Oxley Act: Planning & Compliance and its twice-annual updates, provides a blueprint for an effective corporate compliance program for in-house and outside counsel, compliance and financial executives, corporate directors and trustees, and chief executive and operating officers.
