To split or not to split: Our reaction to the potential EY separation

It's been known for some time now that EY, one of the ‘Big 4’ professional services firms, has been considering splitting its auditing and consulting arms into separate organisations.   Well, it was recently revealed that the split has been approved by EY’s senior leadership, and will now be subject to a partner vote.
