Chief Audit Executives Like Sarbanes-Oxley…No, They Really Like It

- March 16, 2011
A new survey of more than 300 chief audit executives (CAEs) by Grant Thornton LLP finds that while nearly half believe that the shifting regulatory landscape poses the greatest threat to their company, a vast majority (88%) do not believe that the Sarbanes-Oxley Act (SOX) should be repealed. Of those that believe SOX should be repealed, the cost of compliance is the main reason for doing so. āSince the passage of SOX, organizations have had to dedicate significant resources to comply with a host of new laws and regulations,ā noted Warren Stippich, a Chicago-based partner and Grant Thorntonās national Governance, Risk and Compliance solution leader. āBased on discussions with various CAEs during the survey process, many believe that SOX brings a continued focus by management on financial and governance-related controls. However, CAEs believe that compliance audit processes are now well-defined and are currently exploring ways to contribute value creation to the organization well beyond compliance monitoring and reporting.ā [GT]
