Letters - Reputation under threat.
As a policyholder with Equitable Life I am sure many others share my feelings when I say all the while accountants are regulated by accountants there is the possibility of a deafening hush when things are missed and start to go wrong.
However, in this case, the scale of the problem indicates that given time, someone must be brought to book otherwise the reputation of the British financial community will be severely damaged and that isn’t in the interests of anyone.
