Maybe SOX Isn’t the Problem After all? Maybe it is External Audit!
I had another thought on this topic.

Gartner, Inc. "Regulation 2.0" by Mark McDonald Blog Comments
I recently responded to a blog posting by Mark McDonald from Gartner, Inc about next generation regulatory requirements. I like where Mark is heading and can see real merit in the discussion.

I recently responded to an article posted by James Dornbrook Staff Writer of the Kansas City Business Journal. It is really unfortunate that people are spending so much money on SOX compliance. As always, we strongly encourage everyone to consider their options when implementing SOX. It doesn't have to be an expensive, overbearing experience. I do get a kick out of the executives who act as though they are victims of the SEC now because of SOX; it is almost as though they were forced to go public under duress...in any event, the article and my comments can be found here.

I recently had the privilege of commenting on a great article from Matt Kelly, editor-in-chief of Compliance Week. The article discusses the strains put on internal audit teams. Check out the article and my comments here.
