Livent: “Canada’s WorldCom” Sparks Debate over White Collar Regulation

By Securities Docket on March 26, 2009, 6:51 am

An Ontario judge ruled yesterday that Livent Inc. co-founders Garth Drabinsky and Myron Gottlieb were guilty of fraud and forgery for manipulating the financial statements of Livent in the 1990s. The verdict, which came after an 11 year prosecution by the Crown attorneys, has sparked debate in Canada over the sufficiency and effectiveness of that country’s white collar fraud regulation.  Read more about the case and the reaction in this post on my Enforcement Action blog over at Compliance Week.
