Discussion: Ethics in Corporate America

Briefly share your thoughts on the role that investing plays in your short-term and long-term investment strategies. Feel free to share what your expectations are for this course and how it will contribute to your future investment strategies.

Having reviewed the module resources, and using your knowledge and understanding of corporate ethical responsibilities, address the following:

• How does the Sarbanes–Oxley Act contribute to accurate and quality financial reporting by public corporations? Why is the act considered an excellent example of public corporations meeting a key ethical standard?
• Why is it important for an investor to create a well-diversified investment portfolio? How should an investor allocate investment funds across sectors and industries?

To support your responses, provide examples of companies that were negatively affected by a lack of ethical guidelines.

The words should be in 2 pages in APA style and do not make plagiarism. I will check it by turntin. thanks
