- Description
- This examination of corporate officers' perceptions provides insights into their confused understanding of solvency. Questionnaire and interview evidence exposes officers' equivocations on whether a separate legal entity or group enterprise perspective should be adopted in assessing solvency. The serviceability of consolidated (economic entity or closed group) accounting data is demonstrated here to be equally problematic for officers making those solvency assessments in respect of an economic group and any related closed group. These outcomes have implications for agencies such as APRA and ASIC in developing regulatory policy.
