What the paper says

The author, one of the leading business thinkers in the USA and a former Harvard Business School professor, puts forward his hopes and fears for the year 2004. He hopes that the worlds of financial reporting and corporate governance will become clearer and more effective but he worries that resistance from company directors and a preference for rules rather than principles will hinder this process. On balance he concludes that he is more hopeful than fearful for the year ahead.
