NR Narayana Murthy founded Infosys in 1981, retired three decades later, came back as executive chairman in June 2013 and stepped down in a year after handing over charge to a professional management led by CEO Vishal Sikka. In the process, he also left the board, which today comprises a non- executive chairman (R Seshasayee), seven independent directors and two executive members (Sikka and COO Pravin Rao). Last week, in a candid interview with ET, Murthy spoke of a “concerning drop in corporate governance” at Infosys. Subsequent reports in ET also suggest the IT bellwether may have fallen short of the standards it’s been known for on the due diligence and disclosures fronts. Infosys is a company whose global delivery model was envisioned and nurtured by the founder (along Also Read: Why Infy needs to figure out the best way to utilise $5bn it is sitting on with six cofounders).

The spotlight, according to some immigration experts, will shift towards the EB-5-based US immigration visa, which is investment-linked. At present, such visas issued to Indians remain in the three-digit figure, but with it probably being the easiest route to set foot on American soil, the number of applications could go up significantly. Mark I Davies, global chairperson of Davies & Associates, a US immigrant investor visa firm, says, "Trump's win in the Presidential Elections will be beneficial for EB-5 visa applicants. Such visas, issued to Indians remain in the three-digit figure, will see a rise if they remain the easiest route to set foot on While some of our clients have expressed concern with a Trump victory, we believed that American soil. their concerns will be short-lived, it will cause more Indians to apply for an EB-5-based US immigrant visa." Trump has previously used the EB-5 visa program as a source of funding for some of his real estate projects.
