Paper Summary:

This research discusses the impact of Sarbanes Oxley and specifically Section 302 of the Act on corporate governance and how the success or failure of this particular section affects the corporate officer fiduciary behavior vis-a-vis the securities markets in the United States. Enron is used as an illustrative example in this research for several reasons: 1) it is largely responsible for much of the impetus behind the Sarbanes Oxley Act as well as for much of the language behind it, and 2) Enron is uniquely suited to demonstrating the almost incestuous character of the relationship that some executive officers of corporate America develop with Wall Street and its securities industry.
