One Mitie Group investigation closed

The accounting watchdog has closed its investigation into Mitie Groupā€™s accounts, which was launched following the announcement of profit warnings by the outsourcing company.

The FRC said that after a detailed review of the evidence, the Executive Counsel decided that ā€œthe evidential test for bringing enforcement action is not metā€.

That said, the investigation into Deloitteā€™s audit of Mitieā€™s Groupā€™s financial statements for the years ended 31 March 2015 and 2016 remains ongoing.
