Richard Girgenti (2018), the leader of KPMG LLP’s Forensic Advisory Services, said that Brazil is experiencing the worst recession in decades due in large part to corruption and the political and economic uncertainty that it has generated. Brazil’s economy, its financial markets, and citizens, are suffering because of corruption scandals that have led to prosecutions of many political and business leaders, as the problem is widespread and of long duration (GAN Integrity Inc., 2018).
