Verdict rajat gupta case
Rajat Gupta, a former director of Goldman Sachs and Procter & Gamble, was convicted on three counts of securities fraud and one count of conspiracy for passing confidential boardroom information to hedge fund manager Raj Rajaratnam, who earned millions from the tips. Gupta faces up to 20 years in prison on each fraud charge and up to 5 years for conspiracy. A jury found Gupta guilty based on phone records showing he promptly called Rajaratnam after receiving inside information from board meetings. The conviction of Gupta, a prominent business leader, was a major victory for prosecutors in their crackdown on insider trading.
Insider trading
The document summarizes an insider trading case involving four parties - UTI, HLL, BBLIL, and SEBI. HLL planned to merge with BBLIL, which it informed exchanges of on April 19, 1996. Before the merger, HLL bought shares of BBLIL from UTI. SEBI accused HLL of insider trading, but the finance ministry later absolved HLL of charges. The key issues were whether HLL was an insider, if it had non-public information, and if it gained unfair advantage. While SEBI argued HLL was an insider, the information was non-public, and it gained, HLL counters the information was public and it did not unfairly benefit

Galleon insider trading.pptx
The Galleon Group insider trading case was the largest hedge fund insider trading case in US history. Raj Rajaratnam was the founder of Galleon Group and a hedge fund manager who was found guilty of trading on non-public information from various sources including senior executives at IBM, McKinsey, and Intel. Rajat Gupta, a former director at Goldman Sachs, was also implicated for providing insider information to Rajaratnam. In 2011, Rajaratnam was sentenced to 11 years in prison and fined $150 million for his role in the scheme that resulted in over $60 million in profits from illegal insider trades.

13-1 Introduction
The Galleon Group was a privately owned hedge fund firm that provided services and information about investments such as stocks, bonds, and other financial instruments. Galleon made money for itself and others by picking stocks and managing portfolios and hedge funds for investors. At its peak, Galleon was responsible for more than $7 billion in investor income. The company’s philosophy was that it was possible to deliver superior returns to investors without employing common high-risk tactics such as leverage or market timing. Founded in 1997, Galleon attracted employees from prestigious investment firms such as Goldman Sachs, Needham & Co., and ING Barings. Every month the company held meetings where executives explained the status and strategy of each fund to investors. In addition, Galleon told investors that no employee would be personally trading in any stock or fund the investors held.
In 2009 Raj Rajaratnam, the head of Galleon, was indicted on 14 counts of securities fraud and conspiracy, as well as sued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for insider trading. He and five others were accused of using nonpublic information from company insiders and consultants to make millions in personal profits. Rajaratnam’s trial began in 2011, and although he pleaded not guilty, he was convicted on all 14 counts, fined over $158 million in civil and criminal penalties, and is currently serving an 11-year sentence.13-2 Raj Rajaratnam
Rajaratnam, born in Sri Lanka to a middle-class family, received his bachelor’s degree in engineering from the University of Sussex in England. In 1983 he earned his MBA from the University of Pennsylvania’s Wharton School of Business. With a focus on the computer chip industry, he meticulously developed contacts. He went to manufacturing plants, talked to employees, and connected with executives who would later work with Galleon on their companies’ initial public offerings.
In 1985 the investment banking boutique Needham & Co. hired Rajaratnam as an analyst. The corporate culture at Needham & Co. profoundly influenced Rajaratnam and his business philosophy. George Needham was obsessive about minimizing expenses, making employees stay in budget hotel rooms and take midnight flights to and from meetings. The company also urged analysts to gather as much information as possible. They were encouraged to sift through garbage, question disgruntled employees, and even place people in jobs in target industries. Analysts went to professional meetings, questioned academics doing research and consulting, and set up clandestine agencies that collected information. At Needham & Co., Rajaratnam developed an aggressive networking and note-taking research strategy that enabled him to make accurate predictions about companies’ financial situations.
Rajaratnam rose rapidly through the ranks at Needham to become president of the company by 1991. Rajaratnam’s personality also began to impact the company’s cu ...

Rajat Gupta was the former managing director of McKinsey & Co and served on the boards of several major companies. He was convicted of insider trading for leaking confidential boardroom discussions to Raj Rajaratnam, a convicted financial scammer. The SEC alleged that Gupta's tips generated over $23 million in profits for Rajaratnam. Gupta was the highest profile conviction in the ongoing investigation into insider trading cases associated with Rajaratnam and Galleon Group. He was found to have violated his duty of trust and confidentiality owed to the companies he served on the boards of.

During the summer of 2006, a syndicate of investors led by the Bla.docx
During the summer of 2006, a syndicate of investors led by the Blackstone Group, one of Wall Street’s largest private equity investment firms, initiated a secret plan to acquire free scale semiconductor. Based in Austin, Texas, free scale is among the world’s largest producers of semiconductors and for decades was a subsidiary of Motorola, Inc., the large electronics company. In July 2004, Motorola spun off free scale in one of that year’s largest initial public offerings. Blackstone retained Ernst & Young (E&Y) to serve as a consultant for the planned buyout of free scale. Among other services, Blackstone wanted E&Y to review free scale’s human resource functions and to make recommendations on how to stream- line and strengthen those functions following the acquisition. James Gansman, a partner in E&Y’s transaction advisory services (tas) division, was responsible for overseeing that facet of the engagement. Similar to the other big four accounting firms, E&Y became involved in the investment banking industry during the 1990s. in fact, by the late 1990s, the small fraternity of accounting firms could boast of having two of the largest investment banking practices in the world, at least in terms of the annual number of consulting engagements involving merger and acquisition (M&A) deals. In 1998, KpMG consulted on 430 M&A transactions, exactly one more than the number of such engagements that year for pricewaterhousecoopers (pwc). Despite those impressive numbers, KpMG and pwc had not established themselves as dominant firms in the investment banking industry. In 1998, the total dollar volume of the M&A engagements on which KpMG and pwc consulted was $1.65 billion and $1.24 billion, respectively. Those numbers paled in comparison to the annual dollar value of M&A transactions for industry giants such as Goldman Sachs, which was involved in M&A deals valued collectively at nearly $400 billion in 1998. At the time, Goldman Sachs, Lehman brothers, Morgan Stanley, and the other major investment banking firms consulted exclusively on “mega” or multibillion-dollar M&A engagements. By contrast, the “low end” of the M&A market–in which the big four firms competed–typically involved transactions measured in a few million dollars. E&Y’s involvement in the huge free scale M&A deal was a major coup for the big four firm. When the transaction was consummated in December 2006, the price paid for the company by the investment syndicate led by the Blackstone Group approached $18 billion. That price tag made it the largest private takeover of a technology company to that point in time as well as one of the ten largest corporate takeovers in US history. Not surprisingly, Blackstone demanded strict confidentiality from E&Y and the other financial services firms that it retained to be involved in the planned acquisition of free scale. James Gansman, for example, was told that Blackstone wanted the transaction to be “super confidential” and was instructed in an in ...
Financial Market Abuse & Fraud. A US and UK Perspective.
The document discusses insider trading and market abuse. It provides examples of behaviors that can constitute market abuse, including:
1) An employee who buys shares in their company before public knowledge of an imminent takeover bid, based on private information, giving them an unfair advantage over others in the market.
2) An employee who discloses private information about an imminent takeover to a friend, allowing the friend to also profit unfairly from inside knowledge.
3) Selling shares based on private information about an upcoming loss of a major contract, again providing insider knowledge to the detriment of others trading.
4) Manipulating transactions by purchasing a large number of shares to artificially inflate the price at the

Privacy & publicity trade secrets in Wisconsin
This document discusses trade secrets, privacy, and publicity laws in Wisconsin. It defines what constitutes a trade secret, outlines examples of trade secret theft and the associated penalties. It also discusses Wisconsin privacy statutes protecting against the unauthorized use of someone's name, likeness or private facts. Additionally, it notes the practical challenges around monitoring employee social media use and posts to avoid violating these laws.
Government Investigations and Enforcement Actions
The fifth webinar presentation in the M&A Litigation Series examines compliance pitfalls associated with M&A transactions. We will discuss how to evaluate antitrust risks of a transaction. We also will address compliance concerns – such as antitrust, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, the False Claims Act, and export control issues – that could significantly impact the scope, duration, and magnitude of necessary due diligence. Finally, we will address post-merger considerations that could decrease the severity of a compliance concern if one were to arise after a merger or acquisition has been completed.
On our agenda:
-Pre-transaction – evaluating the transaction itself from an antitrust perspective
-Pre-closing – managing client conduct and the risk of “gun jumping”
-Due Diligence – what to look for
-Post-merger considerations for fostering and perpetuating a “Culture of Compliance”
-Managing compliance concerns that are discovered post-closing

Provide a brief synopsis of Mr. Lee's concerns regarding Lehman Brothers.
*Matthew Lee was an executive in Lehman Brothers, a senior vice president, in 2008, and both verbally, and in a formal letter to the then CFO and Chief Risk Officer he reported that he believed that members of the senior management have violated LB's internal code of ethics by "misleading investors and regulators about the true value of the firm's assets." (Corkery, 2010)
* What are sensing mechanisms and why are they important?
Jennings advises that executives get out of their office, that is, out of official meetings, and regularly speak informally with employees. Sponenaity and approachability often leads to new insights about the condition of the company and its employees. Jennings referred to a television program called Undercover Boss, in which executives of a company spend time under another alias and worked with their regular workers, speaking to them and listening to them without the trappings of hierarchy and fear of losing their jobs. Usually the executives learn new things, good and bad, about the conditions and thinking of their employees.
*What is the humble firm and how does it encourage ethical behavior?
In a humble firm, according to Jennings, "the arrogance of results and top performance is kept at bay. This permits an more open environment to take hold." (Jennings, 2014,pg 271) This type of environment allows for people of all levels of a company to speak freely and even correct ethical behaviors. This type of humility will allow for any ethical issues to be discussed on their own merits, rather than who is engaging in them.
*Describe what leads to the types of behaviors at Lehman and other companies that eventually collapse.
Sometimes leaders of companies feel that compromising their ethics in order to make the company prosper is sufficiently justified. The casuistry theory of leadership implies that making the decisions that are made on behalf of the company is part of the duties of a leader, even if the decisions are against the law or the ethical guidelines of the company. However, when they are found out, the majority of the public will not agree that leaders have the right to break the law. The implication, however, is that some people feel that if it is not known, it can be accepted. This concept, causistry, states that ""rulers" must, therefore, in conscience and ethics, subordinate their interests ,including their individual morality, to their social responsibility." (Drucker,1981, pg 24-25)The statement made by former President Nixon, who resigned amid the Watergate scandal of the early 1970's illustrates this attitude "When the President does it, it is not illegal."
*Why are managers unable to simply rely on their ethics hotlines
In her book Business: Its Legal, Ethical and Social Environment, Jennings stated "Despite a strong values system, an individual facing the complexities of business ne.

Ma and Pa invested their retirement savings based on the advice of an investment advisor. Their investments were in risky or fraudulent schemes that resulted in losses of most or all of their money. Now in their retirement with little income or assets, Ma and Pa are seeking ways to recover some of their losses. Potential avenues for recovery include pursuing legal action against the brokers and brokerage firms that sold them the investments, as these parties may have liability if they did not properly vet the investments or make suitable recommendations. Any funds recovered would likely only provide partial compensation and legal action could take several years.
Foreign Corrupt Practices Act Compliance
This webinar discusses compliance with the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA). It provides an overview of the FCPA and recent enforcement actions, highlighting risks around payments to foreign officials, third parties, gifts and travel. It also covers accounting requirements, individual liability, cooperation incentives, whistleblower protections and penalties for violations.

Fiduciary
The document discusses fiduciary duty in several contexts. It begins by summarizing Mark Hurd's career as CEO of HP and his resignation following a sexual harassment complaint. This led to a shareholder lawsuit alleging HP's board breached its fiduciary duty by approving a large severance package for Hurd. The document then examines fiduciary duties of corporate officers and directors, as well as between spouses. It analyzes fiduciary duty questions around Bernard Madoff's Ponzi scheme and the divorce of LA Dodgers owners Frank and Jamie McCourt.

All the Small Things - XP2024 Bolzano/Bozen
Originally presented at XP2024 Bolzano
While agile has entered the post-mainstream age, possibly losing its mojo along the way, the rise of remote working is dealing a more severe blow than its industrialization.
In this talk we'll have a look to the cumulative effect of the constraints of a remote working environment and of the common countermeasures.

Insider trading (Galleon Group)
- 2. What is INSIDER TRADING? • Insider trading is the trading of a public company's stock or other securities (such as bonds or stock options) by individuals with access to non-public information about the company. In various countries, trading based on insider information is illegal. • "Insider trading" is a term that most investors have heard and usually associate with illegal conduct. But the term actually includes both legal and illegal conduct. The legal version is when corporate insiders—officers, directors, and employees—buy and sell stock in their own companies. When corporate insiders trade in their own securities, they must report their trades to the SEC.
- 3. Examples of insider trading cases that have been brought by the SEC/SEBI are cases against: •Corporate officers, directors, and employees who traded the corporation's securities after learning of significant, confidential corporate developments; •Friends, business associates, family members, and other "tippees" of such officers, directors, and employees, who traded the securities after receiving such information; •Employees of law, banking, brokerage and printing firms who were given such information to provide services to the corporation whose securities they traded; •Government employees who learned of such information because of their employment by the government; and •Other persons who misappropriated, and took advantage of, confidential information from their employers.
- 5. •On Friday October 16, 2009, Raj Rajaratnam was arrested by the FBI and accused of conspiring with others to engage in insider trading in the stock of several publicly traded companies. U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara put the total profits in the scheme at over $60 million, telling a news conference that it was the largest hedge fund insider trading case in United States history. •Rajaratnam allegedly profited from information received from: Robert Moffat, a senior executive of IBM considered next in line to be CEO[31] Anil Kumar, a senior executive of McKinsey & Company and close friend of Rajat Gupta (its former CEO) who was later also accused of passing information to Rajaratnam Rajiv Goel, a midlevel Intel Capital executive Roomy Khan, previously convicted of wire fraud for providing inside information from her employer, Intel, to Rajaratnam
- 6. It was alleged that Rajaratnam also conspired to get confidential information on the $5 billion purchase by Warren Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway of Goldman preferred stock prior to the September 2008 public announcement of that transaction. The Wall Street Journal reported in April that a former member of the board of directors of Goldman Sachs and former McKinsey & Company chief executive Rajat Gupta told Rajaratnam about Berkshire's investment before it became public.
- 7. Rajat Gupta, a former Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Procter & Gamble board member, arrives at the Manhattan Federal Court in New York May 22, 2012. CREDITS: REUTERS/KEITH BEDFORD TOP SECRET INVESTMENT DEAL R. Gupta is accused of tipping Raj Rajaratnam about a deal that gave Goldman a $5-billion boost from renowned investor Warren Buffet at the height of the 2008 financial crisis, in an illegal breach of his fiduciary duties.
- 8. FBI wiretap on July 28, 2008 of McKinsey senior partner emeritus Rajat Gupta speaking to Galleon Group founder Raj Rajaratnam about Goldman Sachs, senior partner Anil Kumar, Galleon International and Kohlberg Kravis Roberts. On October 24, 2012, Gupta was sentenced to two years in prison by Judge Jed Rakoff of the United States District Court in Manhattan for leaking boardroom secrets to former hedge fund manager Raj Rajaratnam. His conviction was upheld by a Federal Appeals Court on March 25, 2014. His prison sentence began on June 17. On June 11, 2014 US Supreme Court rejected Gupta's bail plea, a week before his prison term begins. Click on the Icon to listen the Wiretap Source : Wikipedia.org
