Illicit Financial Flows
Not using natural strong hierarchies in managing financial performance is the very reason we see an uprise in regulations. One of the most aggressive controls pushed into the private sector included the removal of an executives right to "not know". It was progressive but the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002 was an aftermath of major corporations failing to manage the cost of goods/services against their reported revenue. Profit was reported inaccurately to the Security Exchange Commission.
