Insurer Says It Lost $3M Because RSM Audit Missed Fraud
Law360 (February 5, 2021, 9:36 PM EST) -- Philadelphia Indemnity Insurance Co. says in an Illinois state court suit that consulting firm RSM US LLP should be on the hook after the insurer paid $3 million to cover damages its insured incurred after RSM failed to detect management-level fraud during an audit.
The insurer claims in a suit filed Wednesday that RSM's failure to conduct a proper probe of Insureon Holdings LLC's financial records caused the insurance company to later pay out the $3 million policy limits under its insured's fidelity and employee theft insurance policy.
