The Russian administration charges PriceWaterhouseCoopers with complicity of tax avoidance in the Ioukos affair. Four years ago, the accounting firm would have written two contradictory reports: one official bound for the Ioukos' shareholders and validating the accounts; the other confidential for the top management and evoking embezzlements. The Moscow court of arbitration condemned PWC to pay a 600.000 US$ fine to the Russian State.

The US Public Company Accounting Oversight Board released reports stating that PwC had produced some audits with significant deficiencies.

L'AMF a notifié des griefs aux deux commissaires aux comptes de Rhodia, PricewaterhouseCoopers et Salustro Reydel. Pour eux, la question clef semble porter sur les impôts différés. Dans son bilan, Rhodia intégrait jusqu'à la fin 2003 d'importants actifs d'impôts différés, représentant les éventuelles économies fiscales dont le groupe aurait pu bénéficier si son résultat net était redevenu positif rapidement. Selon l'Autorité des marchés financiers, cet actif aurait dû être déprécié dès la fin 2002 ou au pire à la mi-2003, quand il est devenu clair que les comptes étaient dans le rouge durablement, et que Rhodia ne pourrait donc pas activer ce mécanisme.
