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.

Why won’t Germany take up Singapore’s offer?

Braun as Captain of the Titanic 

He’s not a joiner

Second guessing CEO’s decisions

Notable Quotes
1.     "I have never been a gang member or even their leader. I had no personal relationship with any of these people." 
2.     "I didn't believe for a single second that the business wasn't there." "We said very clearly, we regard the third party partners as an intermediate step. The TPA is reviewed as a form of firewall, essentially, intercessors who create a distance between Wirecard and dealers, that is a layer to appear to reduce risk." 
3.     "I am convinced that the business existed, but obviously significant parts did not flow into the escrow account."" 
4.     "You couldn't run everything, the Wirecard Bank. And remember, all those illicit charges on cards needed to be recoded to get past Visa, Mastercard, Wirecard, Amex. And the intermediary banks, don't forget them. There were a lot of moving parts."

      <description>Welcome to the latest edition to the Compliance Podcast Network, The Wirecard Saga. In this series, I am joined by Mikhail Reider-Gordon, Managing Director of Institutional Ethics &amp; Integrity at Affiliated Monitors.  In this episode, we take a deep dive into the conflicts of interest by German regulators who were investing in Wirecard while (allegedly) regulating it, EY clams up, whistleblowers and investigating crimes or not;  all in the Who Watches the Watchers edition. 
Some of the highlights include: 

Current events;

Head of APAS invests in Wirecard and the Investigative Committee is Astonished;

What is a Conflict of Interest after all and does hindsight affords clear vision?

EY is certainly economical with the truth;

Germany’s two-tier system, drowning in risk pools and regulators don’t read; 

Whistleblowers galore (but not enough for the 12 Days of Christmas);

BaFin-detecting crime is not our remit; and 

What were all the missed opportunities.

      <title>End of Summer Wrap UP</title>
      <description>In this special podcast series, I am joined by Mikhail Reider-Gordon, Managing Director of Institutional Ethics &amp; Integrity at Affiliated Monitors. Mikhail’s areas of expertise include technology, privacy, cybersecurity, IP and accountability in artificial intelligence; the global anti-corruption and anti-money laundering regimes; media &amp; entertainment; biotech and the life sciences; the public sector and international law. In this episode, we are back from a summer hiatus and wrap up what has been happening on the Wirecard front over the past few weeks.

Some of the highlights include:
·       BaFin Unapologetic
·       Reporters and Short Sellers – Free to Be, You &amp; Me?
·       Political Fallout?
·       Another German DAX-listed Company Scandal?
·       Impact on EU – Rethinking Germany Frankfurt and Bonn for Financial Services Capitols post-Brexit?
·       What is happening within Wirecard now – is the company still going?
·       Deutsche is Not Buying
·       Has the fullness of the scandal been revealed, or is more coming to light? 
·       What is, or what was, Project Panther?
·       Enron had significant impact on then Big-5; is Wirecard going to impact Big-4 in the same way?
