Spotlight falls on the auditor's burden
Article Abstract:
The 1992 annual conference of the Institute of Chartered Accountants 'Corporate Governance - a time for Change' discusses the draft report of the Committee on the Financial Aspects of Corporate Governance chaired by Sir Adrian Cadbury. Differing views are likely as half the members are in private practice and half are working in industry and commerce. The report includes a proposal for improved value in company interim reports. It aims to dispel disquiet about fraud and going concern among the general public.

Brewing up a brilliant career
Article Abstract:
Working for a brewing company can offer very good career prospects. Most are now very flexible in deciding who should be given the opportunity to run a pub, and have a range of training schemes which allow rapid career progression. Young managers welcome the responsibility and experience which running a pub brings, and may later be in a position to move into other areas with the same company.
