As an initiative to re-establish investor confidence, the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 made executive certifications of financial statements a permanent requirement applicable to all publicly traded companies in the U.S. Implementing a 302 sub-certification process is necessary for key employees with a significant internal control role so that the CEO and CFO have the highest degree of confidence in the information they receive.
According to Sanjay Anand, Chair of The GRC Group, "Ultimately, the 302 sub-certification process will allow the CEO and CFO to confidently sign off on the company certifications filed with the Securities Exchange Commission on a quarterly and annual basis".
