KPMG’s regional board just lost a key independent director, Patty Akopiantz, who quietly stepped down in June — leaving only one other independent director besides new chairman Michael Ebeid.

With no official comment from KPMG on Akopiantz’s departure, the firm is under intense pressure to rebuild trust as it navigates this turbulent period.
