In its announcement, the PCAOB said the practice was widespread, involving more than 1,000 employees from PwC Hong Kong, and hundreds more from PwC China.

The proxy battle between Disney and activist investment firm Trian Management LP is heating up ahead of the company's annual shareholder meeting. On Thursday, Trian said in a filing that Disney shareholders should vote to remove Michael Froman from the board and replace him with Nelson Peltz. "Trian Group believes Mr. Froman has no experience as a public company director outside of Disney," the firm said in a statement Thursday. "In contrast, Nelson Peltz has served on numerous public company boards over the last several years." Few members of Disney's board have media experience outside of the Mouse House.
Alibaba and other US-listed Chinese firms face a lower risk of delisting after officials got access to audit data. Inspectors conducted on-site work in Hong Kong but have yet to gain access to mainland China. The work lessens the potential that roughly 200 Chinese companies will be booted from American exchanges. Chinese officials have cited national security concerns for shutting down inspection demands. The watchdog said it's continuing to demand complete access in mainland China and Hong Kong and is already planning for regular inspections starting in early 2023.
