The CFO as Regulator of Risk
Synopsis
The regulatory regime that has emerged out of the age of corporate scandals and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act has forced CFOs to review their control systems and expand their knowledge and expertise dramatically. The CFO is now expected to be the chief compliance and chief risk officer rolled into one. How can you improve performance in this environment? This chapter shows how the CFO can set high performance and ethical standards, abandon the worst aspects of the fixed performance contract, and ensure transparency and accountability. This chapter is excerpted from "Reinventing the CFO: How Financial Managers Can Transform Their Roles and Add Greater Value."
