Yeah, Faizul defeated me with his links about auditor misbehavior. Looks almost as bad as banks, credit rating agencies and big pharmas... Oh well... Tough to do ethical investing... oh, Big Four are all private, so nothing to see there... :/

The AREM scam had a top five British auditor, I forget which one, but most of AREM's operations and revenue were a complete intervention. No checking until a US journalist started digging.

Less and less reason to trust these guys when they are covering a foreign NASDAQ-listed play.
