One firm had categorised the engagement risk as "normal" for a company which was struggling to maintain its going concern tag, whereas the PCAOB team opined that it should have been "greater than normal".

Moore: "Our firm, like the other large firms, was founded by males and throughout its existence has been managed and heavily populated by males.

The Big 4 accountancy firms can all trace their history back to firms in Europe, from which they have descended through a long line of mergers.

 CPA Bulletin: Big Four Firm slammed by accountancy watchdog
Big Four firm, Ernst and Young, has been slammed by the accountancy watchdog in the UK for its audit of life insurer Equitable Life in the 1990s.
The 11 consecutive years of unqualified audit options and EandYs 'failure to understand' the business led the JDS to accuse the Big Four firm of failing to act with the 'objectivity and independence which is expected from a firm of chartered accoutants.'
The Joint Disciplinary Scheme has attacked the firm for signing off the accounts for each of the years from 1990 to 1993 because they were 'not prepared in accordance with the provisions of the Companies Act 1985 applicable to insurance companies'.
