&lt;p&gt;Earlier today, Vault Consulting Editor Sam Reynolds pointed out that Afghan President Hamid Karzai is pretty ticked off at PricewaterhouseCoopers and Deloitte.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;img class=&quot;embeddedObject&quot; src=&quot;http://content.screencast.com/users/dloos/folders/Jing/media/cfcdd3e8-2619-4f52-bd65-8541d98f94b9/00000367.png&quot; border=&quot;0&quot; alt=&quot;&quot; width=&quot;294&quot; height=&quot;199&quot; align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;Karzai has apparently claimed that both firms&#39; accounting and consulting services are shoddy at best, and that the two were &quot;partly responsible for Kabul Bank&#39;s corruption woes.&quot; Karzai also &quot;promised that &#39;whoever was involved in leading the bank into crisis, all of those people will be brought to justice.&#39;&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;In addition, the prez noted that PwC -- Kabul Bank&#39;s auditor, which Karzai qualified as &quot;the most prestigious American audit firm,&quot; perhaps winking toward Vault&#39;s latest Accounting Rankings -- &quot;had only recently passed Kabul Bank as fit and functioning properly despite clear encountering evidence to the contrary.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Meanwhile, according to &lt;em&gt;The New York Times&lt;/em&gt;, &quot;some Western officials are worried that employees at A.F. Ferguson, PwC&#39;s Pakistan-based affiliate that executed the audit, were bribed to ignore obvious discretions at the bank.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;(Vault: Afghan President Issues Deloitte, PwC Threats)&lt;/p&gt;
