For outsiders, intrigued by and suspicious of the McKinsey mystique, it was an irresistible combination. For partners, most of whom had flown into Washington from their offices around the globe for the scheduled annual meeting, it was a public embarrassment, a private outrage – and even a potential threat to the future of “the Firm”, as McKinseyites call their employer. “You can’t underestimate the shock, the disbelief and anger there,” recalls one McKinsey veteran. As Dominic Barton, the Firm’s personable global managing director, brought the opening plenary session to order, the older partners were “completely ashen-faced”, the same person recalls.

    [ A DECADE OF ACTION, A LIFETIME OF IMPACT ] American India Foundation • Annual Report 2010 - 2011 “AIF’s sustained work over the last decade has not only made a tangible difference to thousands of Indians who are yet to see the benefits of the country’s macro-economic success but is increasingly [ having scale impact by influencing government policy on meeting the needs and rights of the poor.” ] —Salil Shetty, Secretary General, Amnesty International MILLION LIVES 1.5 CHANGED A DECADE OF ACTION A LIFETIME OF IMPACT Today, the narrative of India’s emerging grandeur through rapid economic growth and its symbolism as a bold and powerful tiger set to join the Chi- nese dragon to make Asia an economic power is alluring. Yet this story paints an incomplete portrait of a complex society that defies generaliza- tion, marked by stunning contrasts and an unparalleled human and cultur- al diversity. For those of us who have experienced India firsthand, we un- derstand that this is still a country grappling with devastating poverty, its growth leaving many of its citizens behind in the margins of society. In order to meet India’s long-term development challenges, we’ve realized the need to be responsive, open, and adaptable to rapidly changing needs on the ground and listen closely to the voices that of- ten go unheard. While building an organization that is professional, transparent, credible, secular, and knowledge-based, we have sought to design solutions that are not only assured to make long- term impact, but that are designed along a development life cycle.

KUMAR was until recently a senior partner and director at the global management consulting firm McKinsey & Company ("McKinsey"). KUMAR pleaded guilty before United States District Judge DENNY CHIN to conspiring to commit insider trading crimes with Raj Rajaratnam, a partner of Galleon Management, LLC ("Galleon"), and the portfolio manager of the Galleon Technology Funds. KUMAR consented to the filing of a criminal Information against him and is cooperating with the Government's investigation. According to the Information filed today in Manhattan federal court, as well as statements made during today's guilty plea proceeding: Anil Kumar and Raj Rajaratnam's Corrupt Agreement From 2003 through 2009, KUMAR and Rajaratnam, who met in the 1980s while they were both at the same business school, conspired to engage in insider trading. As part of that conspiracy, KUMAR obtained material, nonpublic information ("Inside Information") from clients of McKinsey and provided that information to Rajaratnam with the understanding that Rajaratnam would trade on it. KUMAR provided this Inside Information to Rajaratnam because, among other things, Rajaratnam paid KUMAR amounts ranging up to $1 million in certain years, because KUMAR was an indirect investor in Galleon, and because of their personal relationship.
