    No, SOX mandates that top level executives must certify that financial information is accurate.

    Explanation:

    This mandate was included in Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Act of 2002. It requires top level executives to certify the financial information that the company made in writing.

    This mandate was made in order to held Top level executives accountable regarding every aspect of operation that exist within the company.

    If this mandate did not exist, the situation will became more dangerous for Bob. Top level executives could do corrupt practices and make lower level accountant as a scapegoat for their actions.
