...| Assignment 1: Review of Accounting Ethics | | | | Assignment 1: Review of Accounting Ethics | | | Doing the right thing matters. Every day, workers make decisions that are vital to a company’s success. How those decisions are made is just as important as the decisions themselves. In every company there are shareholders, consumers, business partners, and employees who have placed their trust in workers to act sincerely, rationally, and in accordance with the utmost ethical and legal standards. Albert Einstein once said that “relativity apples to physics, not ethics.” I perceive this to mean that there should never be a relative situation when it comes to ethics; there is a right and wrong choice. We as human beings need to ensure that we remain exactly that, human beings. Unfortunately, the world is not perfect. There are criminals, liars, cheaters, and scammers who hide in plain sight everywhere we go. Less than 15 years ago, there was a time where multiple financial scandals had been reported taking place in very successful companies, including Enron, WorldCom, AIG, and others (Weygandt, Kimmel, Kieso, 2012, p. 7). The number and magnitude of these scandals resulted in great suspicion of financial reporting, which proved to be detrimental to a company’s success. In my opinion, the most memorable scandal to have taken place in the business world during that time was Enron. During its existence, Enron was an American energy company based in Houston...

...Internship Report on Credit Rating and Factore of Affecting The Bank rating Executive Summery Credit rating agencies (subsequently denoted CRAs) specialize in analyzing and evaluating the creditworthiness of corporate and sovereign issuers of debt securities. In the new financial architecture, CRAs are expected to become more important in the management of both corporate and sovereign credit risk. The logic underlying the existence of CRAs is to solve the problem of the informative asymmetry between lenders and borrowers regarding the creditworthiness of the latter. Issuers with lower credit ratings pay higher interest rates embodying larger risk premiums than higher rated issuers. Moreover, ratings determine the eligibility of debt and other financial instruments for the portfolios of certain institutional investors due to national regulations that restrict investment in speculative-grade bonds. The banking sector in Bangladesh passed through significant changes in terms of structure and policies. Starting with six nationalized commercial and a few specialized banks after independence, the total number of banks has reached 48 at present including private and foreign commercial banks. The Bangladesh financial sector is under going through a phase of transaction, transformation and convergence. The regulators are more active then ever before to bring the sector up to an international standard. The competitive environment created with the presence of too many banks in...
