The SEC enforcement program investigates and takes subsequent injunctive actions or administrative proceedings against registrants and auditors who have violated the financial reporting requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Feroz et al. (1991) point out that the SEC ranks and pursues targets according to the probability of success. This is because the SEC has more targets than it can practically pursue and formal investigations are both costly and highly visible. An example would be a group of cases where costs were understated in the previous financial statements, the SEC would only pursue the cases where it can demonstrate that management knew or should have known through better internal controls. Therefore, it is reasonable to assume that AAER firms knowingly or intentionally engaged in accounting fraud.A. Sample The AAER database is used to extract all sample firms during the period 19902000. Since there are a large number of firms with multiple offenses, we only use their earliest offense as the event date due to the following reasons: previous events may have a residual carryover effect。 management position.On July 30, 2002, President Bush signed into law the SarbanesOxley Act. This is considered to be one of the most sweeping revisions of the federal securities laws in the past 60 years. It creates a significant, new oversight and regulatory regime over the public accounting industry, imposes many important reforms in corporate governance and disclosure requirements, and dramatically increases criminal penalties for white collar crime. One of the most substantive reforms in the act is that . and foreign reporting panies have to provide CEO and CFO certifications with their SEC filings that contain financial statements. Academia has been debating how effective the act is at preventing executives from mitting accounting fraud. Opponents argue that the act will not have the desired effect because existing market mechanisms are already in place to regulate executive behavior. If the accounting fraud is likely to cause management turnover, one can argue that market mechanism is already playing a critical role in disciplining errant management. Thus the disciplining effects of the SarbanesOxley Act could be less than desired.The passing of the SarbanesOxley Act was a direct consequence of two major incidents outlined in the following two paragraphs:In October 2001, Enron, the energy giant, announced that its earnings were overstated by $ billion. Less than two weeks later it fired Andrew Fastow, its Chief Financial Officer, claiming that he allegedly arranged deceptive and failing hidden in the financial statements, Enron was already billions of dollars in debt as a result of fraudulent accounting, illegal loans, and partnerships. Early in December of 2001, it was forced to file for bankruptcy. Top management turnover in that year signaled the instability of Enron.
