Over the past twenty-five years, a series of actions, omissions,
and failures by Canada's lawmakers and the purported gatekeepers of
investors' rights have left Canadians' investments, pensions, and
retirement savings at greater risk. Bodies such as provincial
securities commissions have abandoned their obligations to
safeguard investors and allowed published and audited financial
statements in Canada to become unreliable. Yet these distorted
financial statements are often used by financial analysts who
present them as accurate, leaving investors in the dark about
serious risks and negative impacts on their savings. In Easy Prey
Investors, investigative forensic accountants Al and Mark Rosen
examine the circumstances - beginning with a 1997 Supreme Court of
Canada ruling that largely granted external auditors immunity
against shareholder lawsuits - that have led to a proliferation of
corporate scandals and other financial manipulations, and a
corresponding lack of accountability among auditors. Based on their
many years of experience in major Canadian court cases involving
collapsed companies, the authors reveal the full stories behind the
financial deceptions, and describe the disturbing consequences for
investors. They show how a combination of inaction by lawmakers and
illogical delegation of regulatory power to conflicted financial
statement auditors has seriously harmed investors, as well as how
most conventional protections have been stripped away from
stakeholders. Why invest in Canada when your money can so easily be
lost? Prying open doors too often sealed shut, Easy Prey Investors
illuminates the unpleasant details of financial manipulation and
suggests new ways to guide and protect investors and their
families.
