What Enron Can Teach Us About Future Frauds
In this first episode of Fraud Eats Strategy with Scott Moritz, he speaks to former Enron Whistleblower Sherron Watkins about the many red flags that were ignored, the ill-fated board decisions and the wide-ranging complicity that led to Enron’s implosion.
Sherron’s memo to former Enron leadership warned of the accounting irregularities that would cause the company to “implode in a wave of accounting scandals” and sparked what is now one of the biggest fraud and misconduct cases in American history.
