From the Paper:

"Today's corporate leaders seem to be lacking both substance and heart, and surrounded in and around scandals and controversies. One of the most significant and recent examples of this is the disintegration of Arthur Andersen following the Enron disgrace. It only proposes that there are disturbing problems that need to be tackle by the accounting vocation and teaching. The frequent monetary reviewed reports that have been demanded lately only raises serious doubts and questions bout the teaching, training and integrity of the top monetary mangers in various corporations. Now, most definitely, it is hard to disregard the influence of the basic and allegedly worth-impartial economic hypothesis that at present governs administrative philosophy in numerous business institutions."
