The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 radically changes corporate governance and reporting obligations and imposes strict rules on how companies manage their financial processes. Companies are held to a new level of accountability that has challenged executives to implement systems that solve compliance initiatives. Companies must evaluate every business process down to the transaction level and fix any weaknesses in internal controls or face costly penalties and potential lawsuits.
