Does the WireCard fraud have enough to take down EY (the auditor who didn't bother to check bank account balances) ?

EY corporate structure is split by country....so theoretically one bad actor won't take down the entire global firm via legal liability...but that may not be enough if WireCard is as bad as Enron.

thoughts?

This is the kind of stuff that just makes me ask what do these people do all day?

"EY failed to ask for Wirecard bank statements for 3 years"

Then what did you actually do for those 3 years? There are no standards at all. I honestly hope they go completely down. Germany is not China. What their people do in Germany is a mirror of what they do elsewhere because it is a top economy connected globally and with modern standards of business. My bank has used them in the past (even during corona) for their consulting services but I honestly I hope I don't see their logo in a powerpoint ever again. From this point on anyone who works with EY is a fool and a bigger fool if they invest in EY audited companies.

 

Isn't their whole motto we are efficient, never go into debt and never misuse resources? Seems fishy how ey didn't immediately pick that up

 

EY's stock is prolly going to go down!

Will update my computer soon and leave Incognito so I will disappear forever. How did I achieve Neanderthal by trolling? Some people are after me so need to close account for safety.
