Download or read book The Audit Committee Performing Corporate Governance written by Laura F. Spira and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2007-05-08 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why do we need to understand audit committees? The Cadbury Committee recommended that UK companies should adopt them in response to financial scandals that have stemmed from dubious financial reporting practices. In other countries, similar commissions have made similar recommendations and audit committees are now a common institution. However, many practitioners doubt whether an audit committee really does much to ensure the integrity of a firm's financial statements because, as outsiders, members don't know enough to dig deeply beneath the numbers. The Audit Committee: Performing Corporate Governance argues that such criticism overlooks the ceremonial function of these committees. The audit committee is an arena where members can form and strengthen shifting and fragmentary networks with each other and with the external auditors. Within these networks, both consensus and independence are demonstrated, generating comfort, which legitimises the company and maintains its access to external sources of capital. The audit committee is a key part of the corporate governance structure within an organisation. Many in the UK have been patched together to meet regulatory requirements and their operation is poorly understood because few people other than their members have access to their deliberations. In this account of the world of audit committees the practitioner will find the ethnographical perspectives on ceremonial performance, consensus, independence, and comfort both familiar and different. It's like looking at a photograph of something commonplace from an unusual angle or through a strange-shaped lens.

Download or read book Accounting and Corporate Reporting written by Soner Gokten and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2017-09-20 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We have spent a great deal of time on the continued development of accounting and auditing standards, which are used as a primary component of corporate reporting, to reach today's financial reporting framework. However, is it possible to say that, currently, financial statements provide full and prompt disclosure? Or will they still be useful as a primary element with their current structures in corporate reporting? Undoubtedly, we are deeply concerned about these issues in recent times. This volume contains chapters to discuss the today's and tomorrow's accounting and corporate reporting phenomena in a comprehensive and multidimensional way. Therefore, this book is organized into six sections: "Achieving Sustainability through Corporate Reporting", "International Standardization", "Financial Reporting Quality", "Accounting Profession and Behavioral Aspects", "Public Sector Accounting and Reporting", and "Managerial Accounting".

This book was released on 2020-06-04 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic Paper from the year 2020 in the subject Business economics - Accounting and Taxes, grade: 1.00, Kwame Nkrumah University of Science and Technology, language: English, abstract: The study seeks to ascertain the practices of the audit committee and internal audit improving corporate governance among companies in Ghana, with specific attention to analysing the audit committee's impact on improving internal audit operations, identifying the relationship between the internal audit unit and the audit committee members. Moreover, the author analyzes the impact of the internal audit department and audit committee members on the risk management strategy of companies. The author aims to exam the relationship that exists among the audit committee, internal audit, and its part in the corporate governance system. A critical analysis of the circumstances leading to the collapse of businesses shows that the majority of these corporate failures could be avoided if effective audit committees and internal audit departments are in place to check management activities, especially concerning financial reporting and other accounting practices. The study results were obtained by using data gathered from the internal auditors and audit committee members through the questionnaire survey method.
Download or read book Effectiveness of Internal Audit and Oversight at Central Banks Safeguards Findings Trends and Observations written by Elie Chamoun and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2018-05-31 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Experience under the safeguards policy has shown that central banks continued to strengthen their safeguards frameworks, but that vulnerabilities prevailed in the areas of internal audit and oversight by the audit committee (AC). This paper takes steps to help unravel why this was the case, based on analysis of safeguards findings in these areas during the period April 2010 to December 2017 (covering 111 assessments at 64 central banks). Based on this analysis, it presents the key attributes that determine the effectiveness of internal audit and the AC. It also argues that, an effective internal audit function, coupled with strong oversight by a high-performing AC are key enablers of good governance.
