External auditors gave 'clean opinion' on end-of-year accounts, former Anglo banker tells David Drumm trial

A former Anglo Irish banker said external auditors gave “a clean opinion” on the bank's end-of-year accounts when they were published in December 2008.

Kevin Kelly agreed with lawyers for the bank's former CEO David Drumm (aged 51) that auditors Ernst & Young could have chosen to give “a qualified opinion” regarding the bank's financial health.
