  • "Fondée en 1985 au Texas par Ken Lay, la compagnie de gaz naturel et firme de courtage en énergie Enron adopte en 1990, sous l'impulsion de l'ambitieux Jeff Skilling, une comptabilité selon laquelle les futurs profits sont annoncés comme déjà réalisés. De sorte que la valeur des actions ne cesse de grimper. Mais pour camoufler ses énormes pertes, Enron emprunte à différentes banques par le biais d'un savant réseau de sociétés bidon imaginé par le très créatif Andy Fastow. En janvier 2001, la compagnie va jusqu'à causer artificiellement une crise d'énergie en Californie pour augmenter ses profits. Et juste avant la retentissante faillite d'Enron à la fin de 2001, Lay, Skilling et Fastow vendent leurs actions et empochent des millions de dollars, laissant sur la paille les investisseurs, employés et retraités de la firme.
