Adifficult year on Wall Street has dam-aged investor confidence in the U.S. cap- ital markets, and investors are calling for more transparency into the financial performance of public companies. Seventy percent of investors who took part in a July survey expressed confidence in the U.S. capital markets, down from 84 percent in the same month last year, reports the Center for Audit Quality (CAQ), a public policy organization serving investors, public company auditors and the capital markets. According to the survey of 1,000 U.S. investors, conducted by the Glover Park Group, 45 percent of respondents read financial reports "very" or "somewhat" often, but find the reports hard to use. Further, 72 percent of survey participants favor the design of a more user-friendly way of accessing and reading financial reports.
