KPMG's Bank Audit Troubles Give Accounting a Black Eye

Most of the banks that failed or came close to it this spring had one thing in common: They had recently received a clean bill of health from their auditor, KPMG. This development has caused major problems for the Big Four auditing firm and has shareholders, regulators, and even lawmakers asking KPMG tough questions. On this week's episode of our podcast, Talking Tax, Bloomberg Tax reporter Amanda Iacone talks about her reporting into KPMG's troubles and why this newest accounting scandal, just one of many over the past two decades, has stirred up concern for many in the profession.
