The Dutch branch of the international accounting firm Mazars has received two reports from whistleblowers about possible exam fraud among its employees in the past financial year, the company said in its annual report on Monday. Mazars is the third accounting firm in the Netherlands plagued by possible exam fraud, the Financieele Dagblad reports.
The Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB), the American regulator of accountants, has asked several Dutch accountancy firms to do an extra investigation into exam fraud among their employees. The six largest accountancy firms were already investigating the period 2017-2022, but the Americans want them to also include 2023, sources told Financieele Dagblad.
