Corporate Governance

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act and other new rules and regulations assert that businesses have a “duty of oversight” and must implement and exercise “standards of due care.” These standards call for increasingly responsible corporate governance and establish legal liabilities for corporations and corporate officers who fail to exercise caution, good judgment and sound business practices. A number of corporate fraud cases have emboldened regulators and law enforcement agencies to go after corporations that fail in their duty to protect investors. Today, corporations and their officers must certify their financial results and shareholders are demanding enhanced accountability. The SEC now has the tools and resources at its disposal to police compliance issues.

The corporate governance experts at Gary C. Johnson and Associates can help your organization comply with new and existing regulations. We can conduct thorough background checks on current and prospective officers and employees, complete due diligence and dispute resolution inquiries, ensure proper controlled access to your company’s information and other assets, and assess and remediate any accounting controls and computer system vulnerabilities which may be present.

Boards of Directors, Executive and Financial Officers, and General Counsel are not only responsible for creating and enforcing corporate governance policies, procedures, and business ethics, but also with acting swiftly and decisively when allegations of violations of these policies, procedures, and ethics are made.

The team of investigative experts at Gary C. Johnson and Associates can work immediately and directly with your directors or officers to independently assist you in addressing whistleblower complaints and other allegations of internal or external wrongdoing. We can also help you make any necessary revisions to your corporate governance policies and procedures to comply with existing laws and regulations.
