An audit partner at accounting firm Spielman Koenigsberg & Parker (SKP) agreed to pay a record $150,000 fine handed down by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (PCAOB) for misleading its investigators over the course of multiple inspections.
The alleged actions of Jonathan Taylor also earned SKP a fine of $150,000 and led to the PCAOB revoking the firm’s registration for at least five years. SKP was further censured for failing to establish and implement adequate quality control policies and procedures, according to the regulator.
Taylor agreed to be censured and permanently barred from association with a registered public accounting firm as part of his settlement. His financial penalty total is the highest the regulator has assessed against an individual.
