In The Wirecard Saga, Lies, Spies & Corporate Crimes, host Mikhail Reider-Gordon, Managing Director of Institutional Ethics & Integrity at Affiliated Monitors, looks at the biggest financial scandal in post-war Germany from a variety of angles.

In the latest episode of “The Wirecard Saga,” hosted by Mikhail Reider-Gordon, the discussion heats up as they delve into the recent developments surrounding the scandal. They highlight the minimal penalty imposed on EY, which failed to take adequate action, leading to the multi-billion-dollar corporate collapse of Wirecard, affecting stakeholders at various levels. She also discusses ongoing legal proceedings, including the upcoming proceedings and the role of KPMG’s forensic audit team during the scandal. The lack of importance given to compliance at Wirecard is also spotlighted, despite the formation of a formal compliance department. The podcast raises questions about how many missed opportunities there were to identify the fraud and why Wirecard employees didn’t take action to prevent it.
