Cooper, interim CEO and CRO DivisionsEnron Energy ServicesWebsiteenron.com The Enron scandal was an accounting scandal of Enron Corporation, an American energy company based in Houston, Texas. It was released in October 2001, and led to the bankruptcy of the company, and the de facto dissolution of Arthur Andersen, which was one of the five largest audit and accounting partnerships in the world. In addition to being the largest bankruptcy reorganization in U.S. history at the time, Enron was cited as the largest audit failure. [1]:61 Enron was formed in by Kenneth Lay after merging Houston Natural Gas and InterNorth. Several years later, when Jeffrey Skilling was hired, he developed a team of who – by the use of accounting loopholes, special purpose entities and bad financial reports – were able to hide billions of dollars in business debts and failed projects. Chief Financial Officer Andrew Fastow and other executives mislead Enron's board of directors and audit committee about high-risk accounting practices and pressured Arthur Andersen to ignore the issues. Enron shareholders filed a $40 billion lawsuit after the company's share price, which reached a high of $90.75 per share in mid-2000, fell to less than $1 at the end of November 2001. [2] The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) launched an investigation, and Houston's rival Dynegy offered to buy the company at a very low price. The agreement failed, and on December 2, 2001, Enron filed for bankruptcy under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. Enron's $63.4 billion in assets made it the largest corporate bankruptcy in U.S. history until the WorldCom scandal the following year. Many Enron executives were indicted on a variety of charges and some were later sentenced to prison. Arthur Andersen was found guilty of illegally destroying documents relevant to the SEC investigation, which annulled his license to audit public companies and effectively shut down the company. By the time the decision was overturned in the U.S. Supreme Court, Arthur Andersen had lost most of his clients and had ceased to operate. Enron employees and shareholders received limited returns in lawsuits despite losing billions in pensions and stock prices. As a result of the scandal, new regulations and legislation were enacted to increase the accuracy of financial reporting for public companies. [4] Part of the legislation, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, increased penalties for destroying, altering or fabricating records in federal investigations or for attempting to defraud shareholders. [5] The law also increased the accountability of audit firms to remain impartial and independent of their clients. [4] Enron Kenneth Lay's rise in a July 2004 photo in 1985, Kenneth Lay merged the natural gas pipeline companies of Houston Natural Gas and InterNorth to form Enron. [6]:3 In the early 1990s, he helped start selling electricity at market prices, and soon after, Congress passed legislation that deregulates the sale of natural gas. The resulting markets allowed traders like Enron to sell energy at higher prices, significantly increasing their revenue. [7] After producers and local governments criticized the resulting price volatility and called for increased regulation, strong lobbying by Enron and others prevented this [8] As Enron became North America's largest natural gas seller in 1992, its gas contract negotiation yielded $122 million (before interest and taxes), the second largest contributor to the net income. The creation in November 1999 of the trading site EnronOnline allowed the company to better manage its contracts by negotiating deals. [6]:7 In an attempt to achieve greater growth, Enron followed a diversification strategy. The company owned and operated a variety of assets, including pipelines, power plants, pulp and paper mills, water plants and broadband services worldwide. The corporation also obtained additional revenue from trading agreements for the same range of products and services with which it was involved. [6]:5 This included the creation of power generation plants in developing countries and emerging markets, including the Philippines (Subic Bay), Indonesia, and India (Dabhol). [9] Enron shares rose from the early 1990s to the end of 1998 by 311%, only modestly above the average growth rate of the Standard & Poor 500 index.

INTRODUCTION On July 13, 2006, three British citizens, David Bermingham, Giles Darby, and Gary Mulgrew ("the NatWest Three") were flown to Houston, Texas to face fraud charges.' The victim of their alleged fraud was a British corporation. Nearly all of the allegedly criminal dealings took place in Great Britain. Yet, the NatWest Three will be 2 tried in the United States. Ian Norris is another British citizen 3facing extradition to the United States. His alleged crime is price-fixing. The NatWest Three and Ian Norris were extradited under a new treaty between the United Kingdom and the United States, the 2003 Extradition Treaty,4 and under a new British statute, the 2003 Extradition Act.5 Extradition arrangements under the treaty and the statute provoked public outrage in the United Kingdom. A range of public figures have spoken out against the arrangements, from politicians on the left and right, to businessmen, to civil-liberties activists.6 Much of the uproar was over a lack of reciprocity.7 When the NatWest Three were extradited in July 2006, the United States had *.

  • Extradition and the Natwest Three: Unintended Consequences Economist, July 15, 2006 Reciprocity Is Not the Issue; Safeguarding the Right to a Fair Trial Is
    Extradition and the NatWest Three: Unintended consequences Economist, July 15, 2006 Reciprocity is not the issue; safeguarding the right to a fair trial is THEY weren't dragged away in leg-irons, but the dispatch by air on July 13th of three British bankers to America to stand trial was as dramatic as legal spectacles get. David Bermingham, Gary Mulgrew and Giles Darby--the so-called NatWest Three--are charged with helping to pull off a £11m ($20m) fraud linked to the collapsed energy giant, Enron. The suspects are British; their victim is British; virtually all the alleged wrongful dealing was carried out in Britain. Their trial, however, like that of Enron's executives, will be in Houston. Outrage over their plight, and the flawed fast-track bilateral extradition treaty that produced it, has united left and right, law lords and NGOs, businessmen and civil-liberties activists (see page 34). Most of the fuss has been about reciprocity--or the lack of it. The three were handed over under the terms of a treaty signed by Britain and America in March 2003 and broadly enshrined in Britain's omnibus Extradition Act later that year. The treaty and the act reduced the supporting material that America must provide in requesting extradition from Britain. But America (which had a lousy record of surrendering Irish terrorists to Britain) has yet to ratify the treaty. Under the old rules America had to present "prima facie" evidence of guilt on the basis of which a jury, in the absence of a defence, could have convicted somebody.

Normally, reputation constrains employee behavior, since an employee who “cheats” at one firm will then find herself unable to get a job at another.
