ACC302 – Over the past decades, interest in corporate governance
ACC302
Major Assignment Question
“Over the past decades, interest in corporate governance practices has increased as a direct result of highly publicised cases of corporate misconduct and concerns over the management of corporation” (Rankin et al 2018, p.202). It is also viewed that corporate governance suffers from being a multilevel concept which differs between the country (or economic) and individual levels. As such, there is an emergence of corporate governance reforms in various countries; which have created significant implications for auditorsand increased responsibilities for accounting professionals.
