Thanks to all who worked so hard on the preparation of this fascinating report for which we paid so handsomely!
Farmer Bob also recommends anything by investigative economic journalist Francine McKenna on the interesting role played by auditors in reconfiguring the GFC (for which they were partly responsible) as a business opportunity, ... including E+Y.

Just for your info re: auditors, I worked for a Higher Education Institution in the UK (which shall remain nameless), as part of their merger / business plan, they contracted Price Waterhouse Coopers (at astronomical cost, paid for out of voluntary redundancies), two years later, they suffer the biggest drop in student admissions of ANY UK HEI. PWC 1 HEI nil. You have been warned!
