Toshiba investigated by Japan's securities watchdog: source
[TOKYO] Japan's securities watchdog is investigating Toshiba Corp's accounting practices for the last business year to see if it properly handled the losses incurred by its US nuclear unit Westinghouse, a source familiar with the matter told Reuters.
The Securities and Exchange Surveillance Commission is examining the process involved in creating the financial report for the 2016/17 business year, said the source, who was not authorised to speak to the media and declined to be identified.
A Toshiba spokesman declined to comment.
