Nun verdichten sich die Hinweise darauf, dass er schon lange im Dienste Moskaus stand – und nach der Flucht nahtlos für Russlands Geheimdienste weiterarbeitete.

Auditors didn’t flag risks building up in U.S. banks

What are the big four accounting firms good for? Only to keep the honest companies honest!

"KPMG gave Silicon Valley Bank a clean bill of health 14 days before the lender collapsed. The Big Four audit firm signaled potential loan losses, but not its unrealized bond losses and ability to hold them given a reliance on potentially flighty deposits—what actually brought the bank down. Auditors for nine other U.S. banks most exposed to bond losses also didn’t identify this as an issue when they signed off on their financial statements for 2022, according to a WSJ analysis."

Where Did the Missing Money Go? Sam Bankman-Fried Says He Can Only Guess

Germany's biggest postwar financial scandal: Wirecard

Recommendable! SED Kanzlerin Merkel lobbied für Wirecard in China? 
Anscheinend hat die Bafin auch ganz schön versagt! Und Bundesfinanzminister Olaf Scholz? Man kommt aus dem Staunen nicht raus, wie die 4 big accounting firms (PWC, EY, KPMG, Deloitte) immer wieder davon kommen.

Eine der short sellers von Wirecard in New York Stadt! The lady said she does not have much faith in Olaf (Scholz). There were other financial scandals in Germany before. Hold all politicians accountable! Perhaps, she should manage my retirement account? 😄
