Andersen still making US political donations
Andersen may not be one of the Big Five any longer, but it is still, amazingly, making political donations.
Records of donations made by the staff of the firm show that they gave $500 (£253) in 2006. How, exactly?
TS assumed that the firm was now nothing more than a legal
entity? Any ideas, e-mail.
The firm, former partners may be pleased to know, is still on the list of top donors to political parties.
It gave $86,586 split between the Republicans and the
Democrats in 2004 and a whopping $1.5m donated in 2000. All in all, Andersen
has given out $6,290,362 since 1990.
That means it comes 99th on the list of the top 100 donors to US political parties.
Former partners may be less pleased to know that the company that just pips Andersen to position 98 on the list is none other than one Enron Corporation Inc.
