Auditors must be held responsible and prosecuted when they allow self-dealing activities.

The auditors of Renault and of Nissan have behaved according to the usuel auditors practice:  they accepted the illegal self-dealings of the automotive group chairman & CEO as they did for the top manager at the Germain group Wirecard. According to thé Financial Times Oct.2. 2020 :

« How EY missed the chance to stop Wirecard’s fraud :
Auditors continued to sign off payment group’s accounts even after a whistleblower’s tip »
«  Internal documents, correspondence and a review of Project Ring by rival Big Four firm KPMG, all seen by the FT, paint a picture of the determined efforts of Wirecard executives to kill off the investigation and ensure EY continued to give the once high-flying payments group a clean bill of health. It would be another three years before the scale of deception at Wirecard was uncovered, during which time the company raised billions of euros in fresh capital. EY now faces an investigation by Germany’s auditor oversight body Apas, lawsuits from Wirecard investors and the departure of clients such as Deutsche Bank’s asset management arm DWS and Germany’s Commerzbank... »

At this stage it appears that the Nissan auditors concluded an arrangement with the Japanese Dépt. of Justice , as the Renault auditors will likely do...

If we can accept the obvious time and energy savings, in addition to the political benefits, of such «compositions » with the public prosecutor, the numerous victims of the self-dealings, employees, clients, shareholders are not indemnisiez for their damages.

Renault should bring civil indemnity proceedings for their employées and shareholders against EY.

Thank you for your support.
