Financial Reporting of Environmental Liabilities and Risks after Sarbanes-Oxley
Description
This book serves three primary objectives. First, and most important, it describes the complex (and sometimes obscure) interrelationships among U.S. securities laws, financial reporting standards, and environmental law. The term environmental law is here used to embody the broad interaction of environmental public policy, legislation, common law, science, and engineering. These important interrelationships often go unrecognized by professionals working within their respective specialized fields. As a result, the accuracy, completeness, and overall reliability of reported financial information can suffer, and reporting entities and their directors, officers, employees, and professional advisors can be put at risk for failing to meet internal and external financial reporting objectives. Readers seeking to gain a more in-depth understanding of environmental financial reporting are advised to read the book from start to finish at least once.
