Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX), Companies Act 2013 and Clause 49 related services
Recent corporate scandals have eroded investor trust. To reduce corporate malfeasance and protect investors, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (Sarbanes-Oxley), Companies Act 2013 and Revised Clause 49 of Stock Exchange Listing Agreement were promulgated by regulators in the US and India, respectively. These legislations defined a new system of checks and balances to rebuild investor confidence.
Today’s corporate stakeholders expect greater assurance, more oversight and clear evidence of internal controls. Sarbanes-Oxley, Clause 49 of listing agreement and new Companies Act 2013 alters and expands the responsibilities of key participants in the corporate reporting process. These legislations focus on improving the accuracy and reliability of corporate reporting.
