FCA罚款1 500万英镑,因为未在LCF破产前报告可疑的LCF欺诈行为。 The FCA fined PwC £15m for failing to report suspected LCF fraud before its collapse.

英国金融行为监管局（FCA）对普华永道处以1500万英镑的罚款，原因是普华永道未能报告倒闭的迷你债券公司伦敦资本与金融公司（LCF）的涉嫌欺诈行为，这是监管机构首次对审计公司处以罚款。 The UK's Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) fined PwC £15m for failing to report suspected fraud at collapsed minibond firm London Capital & Finance (LCF), marking the first time an audit firm has been fined by the regulator. 普华永道在2016年的一次审计中遇到了危险信号，包括LCF提供的信息不准确，但没有立即向FCA报告其欺诈嫌疑。 PwC encountered red flags in a 2016 audit, including inaccurate information provided by LCF, but did not report its suspicions of fraud to the FCA immediately. LCF于2019年初倒闭，欠近12,000人约23700万英镑。 LCF collapsed in early 2019, owing around £237m to nearly 12,000 people.
