I will give you somewhere where I think Pearson is negligent
- I don't believe he could point to his CV and show where he is fully conversant with Brasillian banking law and financial instruments. I don't think
he was qualified to do due diligence but....that brings us back to the question of who he was doing it for
IMHO he was neglignent in not appointing specialists to carry out specific checks when he must have known he didn't have the skills himself. kroll found it quickly enough
