Frequently asked questions

What is the Sarbanes-Oxley Act?

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, often referred to as SOX, is a United States federal law enacted to improve the transparency, accuracy, and accountability of financial reporting by public companies to protect investors and maintain the integrity of the securities markets. SOX mandates strict requirements on corporate governance, financial disclosures, internal controls, and the independence of auditors to prevent corporate fraud and enhance investor confidence in the wake of accounting scandals such as Enron and WorldCom.

What is Sarbanes-Oxley Compliance Software?

SOX Compliance Software is a specialised tool or platform designed to help organisations ensure adherence to SOX compliance requirements. This software facilitates the implementation, monitoring, and enforcement of internal controls, financial reporting processes, risk assessments, and compliance activities mandated by SOX. SOX Compliance Software streamlines compliance efforts, automates control testing and documentation, and provides transparency and accountability in demonstrating compliance with SOX requirements.

What are the 4 SOX controls?

SOX outlines several key requirements, often categorised into five main sections. The four primary internal control provisions or controls prescribed by SOX are:
  • Control Environment: Establishing and maintaining an effective control environment with a commitment to integrity, ethical values, and compliance.
  • Risk Assessment: Conducting ongoing risk assessments to identify and assess financial risks that may impact the accuracy and reliability of financial reporting.
  • Control Activities: Implementing specific control activities, policies, and procedures to mitigate risks, ensure financial accuracy, and safeguard assets.
  • Monitoring Activities: Establishing monitoring mechanisms to track the effectiveness of internal controls, identify deficiencies, and take corrective actions when needed.

Is SOX compliance different in different countries?

While SOX is a U.S. federal law applicable to U.S.-based public companies and organisations with securities listed on U.S. stock exchanges, its principles and objectives have influenced corporate governance and regulatory practices globally. Different countries may have their own regulations and compliance requirements similar to SOX, but the specifics can vary based on local laws, regulatory frameworks, and cultural contexts. Organisations operating internationally may need to comply with both U.S. SOX requirements and local regulations, adapting their compliance programs to meet the specific regulatory expectations in each jurisdiction.
