    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.

"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.
