SUMMARY:Why ethical principles are important for professional accountants
DESCRIPTION:This webinar will deal with the general principles of ethics, and why it is important to reinforce these concepts for professional accountants every year. We will look at the Enron/Arthur Andersen and Fidentia cases as the reason why we should not underestimate the importance of ethical conduct by professional accountants. Looking at some recent research on why good people sometimes do bad things and the effect a number-crunching culture can have on one’s view of ethics, the webinar will then deal with how the profession seeks to keep professional accountants off the ethical slippery slope, by re-examining the fundamental principles contained in the accountants’ Code of Professional Conduct. Guidance will be given as to how professional accountants can reinforce their prevention focus to minimise the chance of ethical transgressions.
