Accountability In The Church, Professor Ben C Osisioma

In the church setting accountability involves managing the resources God has entrusted us with, organising for service and mission, and providing programmes to carry out the church’s mandate. The goal is to help people grow in Christ and learn …

By Habits Or Choice? Discretionary Spending In The Oecd, Riccardo Fiorito

riccardo fiorito

Only 1/3 of Government spending in the Oecd countries results from choice rather than from inertia. This result stems from Coricelli-Fiorito (21013) where a measure of discretion is provided. A major implication is that most multiplier analysis of public spending is unreliable since it typically refers to variables often reflecting past habits or business cycle implications instead of occasional and intentional policy controls.

After Ten Years, Sarbanes-Oxley Might Be Statutory Overkill

In response to this rapid-fire succession of corporate scandals, Congress enacted the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX”). It is a statute first introduced by Senator Paul Sarbanes and Congressman Michael Oxley, and signed into law by President George W. Bush in …
