@thereluctantaccountant: What does the Evergrande case mean for the Big Four? The Evergrande case will put a spotlight on the relationship between a Big Four member firm and its global umbrella body. Hong Kong court allows liquidators of collapsed property group Evergrande to pursue the body at the centre of PwC's global network for audit failings. #evergrande #bigfour #audit #news #liquidation
Are Accenture in that bracket of individual responsibility for regional entities?

Exactly! And I bet PWC HK sends a portion of profits to the International umbrella firm.

Bet that global arrangement is VERY tax efficient too…. These firms get found out all the time but almost always get away with it…

Another excellent explanation! This is similar to challenges to parent companies under UK health & safety law where the companies are arguing the failing is entirely the subsidiaries fault and that they therefore have no liability. In some cases it has been successfully argued that the parent company's duty of care and liability does extend to the subsidiary's actions.

Sounds like PWC needs consultants from EY for this

This smells like the road to states sueing industries for climate crimes, too. I'm sure the capitalists would see this as a very dangerous precedent, should it gain momentum.

How do you claim “control” for financial consolidation purposes and explain same away when it comes to operations/involvement in Pwc HK? 0 visiblity means control failure at the parent level. Interesting case

This model is really common in the legal industry as well. Law firms will have the same structure internationally in many cases
