处于10多年来印度最大公司丑闻中心的Satyam Computer Services昨日为生存而战。该公司高级经理们寻求委托一家新的审计师事务所和投资银行以找到买家。
Satyam Computer Services, the company at the centre of India's largest corporate scandal in more than a decade, was yesterday fighting for survival as senior managers moved to appoint a new auditor and an investment bank to find a buyer.
Satyam是印度第四大软件公司，该公司董事长拉马林加•拉贾(B. Ramalinga Raju)在周三承认欺诈逾10亿美元后宣布辞职。Satyam的临时经理们表示，公司账户被操纵程度之严重，使他们甚至不能确定是否有足够现金维持到本月底。
Interim managers of India's fourth largest software company, whose chairman B. Ramalinga Raju on Wednesday resigned after confessing to fraud worth more than $1bn, said its accounts had been so thoroughly manipulated they were not even sure it had the cash to last out the month.
对该事件的调查，预期将集中在Satyam长期聘请的审计师事务所普华(Price Waterhouse)在此次丑闻中所扮演的角色。普华是普华永道(PwC)的一个子公司。
Investigations into the affair are expected to focus on questions over the role of Satyam's long-time auditor, Price Waterhouse, in the scandal.
昨日透露的情况显示，美国审计监管机构在去年春季访问普华后，曾就普华对Satyam的审计表示了担心。该访问是美国公众公司会计监督委员会(PCAOB)官员对拥有在美国注册客户（包括Satyam）的印度审计师事务所进行的一系列访问之一。
US audit regulators raised concerns with Price Waterhouse, an affiliate of PwC, about its audit of Satyam after they visited the firm last spring, it emerged yesterday. The visit was one of a series conducted by officials from the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board to Indian auditors with clients registered in the US, including Satyam.
公众公司会计监督委员会在检查中处理与审计行为相关的事务。目前还不清楚检查人员在Satyam的档案中具体提出了哪些事项。
The PCAOB reviews deal with issues related to the conduct of the audit. It is not known exactly what issues the inspectors raised in the Satyam file.
