The insurance company I imagine. Losing and replacing a 15 year old 767 is a lot more desirable from the company's point of view than losing 230 passengers and crew. Checking the breakers was apparently not part of the checklist that the pilots had. The location of the breaker is not well placed and could have been overlooked or as I said earlier it may have opened as a result of the nature of the landing. BTW I've flown as a passenger on that very aircraft (the Poznan).
