Are the auditors, who didn't do their job correctly in relation to giving a true and accurate picture of the state of the banks subject to possible legal action?
Why has this not happened? Apparently the auditors were remiss, in several respects, and they have legal obligations not to be amiss.
It would seem that investors who invested in bankrupt companies, based on the glowing reports of the auditors, now have recourse to sue the auditors.
Class action suit anyone?
edited to add.
The auditors could have no complaints about this, and su-ing them is the correct course of action, to prevent people from saying 'well there's never any enforcement, so we can ignore our legal duties'.
