As SEC filers prepare for the 2023 SOX compliance reporting season, public companies must evaluate their organization’s internal controls, policies and procedures, and IT systems, including user access reviews. Another common issue surrounds significant and unusual transactions, understanding the risks, and designing and testing controls to offset those potential risks.

On this episode of the Risk & Accounting Advisory podcast, Neal Beggan, Partner and Risk & Accounting Advisory Leader, welcomes two of the practice’s Managing Directors, Gareth Montague-Smith and Peyton Black. Together, they look back on hot button topics and lessons learned from the 2022 year-end SOX engagements.

For more information on SOX compliance or how your company can prepare, assess overall trends and benchmarking in the SOX regulatory landscape, and stay in compliance and proactively tackle any current or prior year issues, reach out to our Risk & Accounting Advisory SOX practitioners today.
