Study #1: Moral Hazards and the Busy Director

Part 2 of 5 in the series "Conflicts, Moral Hazards and Boardroom Bias".

Professor James Hunton studies the behavior of key players in the financial market—auditors, financial analysts, corporate CFOs and CEOs and corporate boards of directors. Recently, his research focus has been on Sarbanes-Oxley and the unintended consequences of regulations designed to prevent future corporate accounting scandals. In this video, Professor Hunton discusses two of his research studies.

Professor James Hunton is the Darald and Juliet Libby Professor of Accounting at Bentley College, and Research Professor, Accounting and Information Management, at Universiteit Maastricht, The Netherlands. His most recent psychology-based experiments have focused on conflicts of interest in various business situations.
