Germany’s accounting watchdog on Monday handed the 2016-2018 auditor of Wirecard, named in the company’s annual reports as EY, a 500,000 euro fine ($541,650.00) and banned it from taking on new audits for companies of public interest for two years.
EY said in an email that it had been informed by watchdog APAS that an investigation into the company had been completed, but that it had not been briefed on the details of the decision.
