The U.K. Financial Reporting Council (FRC) announced it closed its investigation into Big Four firm PwC’s audit work at collapsed real estate investment trust Intu Properties.

The probe was dropped after the FRC found “the relevant person(s) should no longer be liable for enforcement action,” it said in a press release Tuesday.
