Olympus auditor handover shows no guideline violations: panel (Reuters)

TOKYO (Reuters) ? A panel reviewing auditing processes at scandal-hit Olympus Corp (7733.T) said on Tuesday it found no violation of accounting guidelines in the handoff to the Japanese arm of Ernst & Young (ERNY.UL) from the previous auditor in 2009.

The panel was established by Ernst & Young ShinNihon LLC to look into criticisms of the auditing process raised in a separate investigation commissioned by Olympus into its $1.7 billion accounting scandal.

The panel said, however, that further examination was needed on whether there were any problems in the handling of the takeover from KPMG AZSA LLC.
