Separation of duties is a key component of the Sarbanes-Oxley Regulations. It ensures businesses are accounting responsibly, and one way to do this is through separation of duties (no one person has complete control of the accounts of a company). See https://www.investopedia.com/terms/s/sarbanesoxleyact.asp and p.42 in the study guide. This piece of legislation does tend to come up in the exam so do revise this topic.
