PwC puts Noble Group’s contested mark-to-market methods to the test

It will initiate a third-party review.

A review by auditor PricewaterhouseCoopers will put Noble Group’s contested mark-to-market models and valuations to the test.

The embattled commodity trading giant today said that it has commissioned PwC to conduct an assurance review of Noble's MTM models, valuations, and governance framework.

Noble’s MTM model came under fire from short sellers early this year, which brought about an unprecedented share price crash.

The group has also set up an independent Board Committee consisting of four non-executive independent Noble Board members: Paul Brough, who will serve as Chairman, joined by Irene Lee, Richard Margolis and Christopher Pratt.

On completion of the PwC's review, the Committee shall report to Noble Group's Board and a summary of the review will be released to the public.

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.

The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.

So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
