Find at least two articles from the Ashford University Library that highlight and discuss two of the biggest challenges facing financial managers today. One of the articles should be about the challenge of maintaining ethical financial integrity and the other article should be on any other challenge that a financial manager may face (e.g., competition, foreign markets, government intervention, etc.).
Summarize your findings from the articles in a two- to three-page paper (excluding title and references pages). The paper should be formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. Be sure to properly cite your selected articles using APA style.
