About the PDF

The Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 and the revised corporate governance listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and the Nasdaq Stock Market (Nasdaq) greatly increased the role of independent directors and narrowed the definition of who may be considered "independent." This article compares and contrasts the independence requirements of the NYSE, Nasdaq, and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act.

Chapter taken from the Practitioner's Guide To The Sarbanes Oxley Act
