Securities Fraud 20 Years After SOX

Marking 20 years since the passing of the landmark Sarbanes - Oxley Act of 2002, Chris and Kurt talk about SOX’s origin story; its perceived influence on accounting, auditing, and the law; and the lasting implications of SOX in today’s markets. They are joined by Professor James J. Park of the UCLA School of Law, who returns to the podcast after discussing SEC Enforcement trends in Episode 30, as he shares his take on SOX and talks about his upcoming book The Valuation Treadmill: How Securities Fraud Threatens the Integrity of Public Companies.
