Funded Activity Summary

Australia's Regulatory Response to Recent Corporate Collapses and Perceived Auditing Deficiencies. The corporate collapses of recent years have cost shareholders and other stakeholders hundreds of millions of dollars. However, various reforms in accounting and governance are coming into force. As these reforms differ markedly from those in other jurisdictions (notably the USA), Australian based research is essential in understanding the effectiveness of the changes in moderating certain corporate behaviour. This research provides a measure of efficacy of these reforms in terms of measures of "manipulation" of corporate earnings. The results of the research will provide evidence of the efficacy of the reforms and pointers to further enhancements.
