Structural Change and Antitrust in the Global Auditing/Consulting Industry and Associated Environmental-Pollution/Climate-Change Issues 全球审计/咨询业的结构变化和反垄断以及相关的环境污染/气候变化问题

The first section of this chapter summarizes the structural changes. The second section summarizes the antitrust problems. The third section discusses some of the climate-change and environmental pollution problems that are significantly affected by regulation of accounting firms and consulting firms; and introduces new solutions. In many countries, accounting firms have the primary responsibility for auditing firms' compliance with mechanisms such as emissions credits, environmental/sustainability accounting and compliance with environmental regulations; and consulting firms (by advising boards-of-directors and senior executives) informally and substantially influence firms' policies and procedures pertaining to waste/pollution and climate-change. The topics of the three sections (structural change, antitrust and the auditing/consulting firms' role in external audits and strategy pertaining to pollution, climate change and waste-management) are linked and or can have symbiotic effects on each other.","PeriodicalId":129265,"journal":{"name":"Complex Systems and Sustainability in the Global Auditing, Consulting, and Credit Rating Agency Industries","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114985898","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On Impossibility Theorems, Informal Algorithms, and International Trade 论不可能定理、非正式算法与国际贸易

During 1990-2017, the global auditing/accounting industry and the global management consulting industry experienced significant structural changes that have implications for Financial Stability, systemic risk and the proper functioning of capital markets. Some of the results included the collapses of stock prices and bond prices of firms suspected of earnings management; and substantial litigation against auditing firms, CRAs and board of directors. Accounting/audit firms and consulting firms have always been key elements in the fight against earnings management, securities fraud, corruption and asset quality management because of their unique position as external auditors and advisors. This chapter introduces some efficient Auditor allocation and Compensation Mechanisms. These new “Learning Business Models” and contracts can solve the conflicts of interest, Antitrust, greed, Regret, Deadweight-Losses, complexity and industrial organization problems inherent in the Auditing/consulting industry; and each such model contravenes Myerson-Satterthwaite Impossibility Theorem, Arrow's Impossibility Theorem, Sen's Impossibility Theorem, Gibbard's Theorem, the Gibbard-Satterthwaite Impossibility Theorem, and the Green-Laffont Impossibility Theorem. These issues have implications for international trade and international capital flows given the prevalence of accounting and management consulting in almost all aspects of modern business.","PeriodicalId":129265,"journal":{"name":"Complex Systems and Sustainability in the Global Auditing, Consulting, and Credit Rating Agency Industries","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127979492","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
