PwC & Jonathan Hinchliffe Face Sanctions Over Wyelands Bank Audit Failures
For those unfamiliar with Wyelands Bank, it has been around since 1980, but its fate took a significant turn when it was acquired in 2016 by a new owner. This acquisition placed the bank under the umbrella of the Gupta Family Group Alliance (GFG Alliance), a conglomerate with diverse interests, including steel, aluminum, and renewable energy. By 2019, the bank had shifted its primary focus to trade finance, with a staggering 84% of its business tied to GFG Alliance-related entities.
