Financial Executives Call Sarbanes-Oxley Compliance a 'Good Investment,' According to Oversight Survey
Oversight Systems Inc. today announced the results of the 2004 Oversight Systems Financial Executive Report On Sarbanes-Oxley Compliance, a nationwide survey of 222 financial executives. The report shows most financial executives are torn on the cost vs. benefits of Sarbanes-Oxley compliance. The findings reveal that a majority of financial executives (57 percent) say Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) compliance was a good investment for stockholders.
However, when asked about the impact of SOX compliance on shareholder value the view was mixed. Although a clear majority (81 percent) think Congress needs to revisit SOX legislation, most would still include the sections that require the CEO and CFO to sign off on financial reports (Section 302); increased documentation and monitoring of internal controls (Section 404); and the timely disclosure of material changes (Section 409). More information about the survey, including downloadable findings, can be found at
