In recent years, the standards of the
accounting profession have been a subject of great scrutiny. The boom of the 90s changed the business environment tremendously. Financial scandals and out-of-hand executives required the reshaping of the accounting industry. This
paper shows that at the forefront of all this is the once-famous accounting
firm of Arthur Andersen. The paper
examines the history and success story of this firm and then examines the issues surrounding the charges of unethical practise.
