This episode examines the meteoric rise of Enron under Kenneth Lay, Jeffrey Skilling, and Andrew Fastow, its fraudulent downfall marked by over $11 billion in hidden losses, and the ensuing collapse of Arthur Andersen. We discuss the Sarbanes–Oxley Act of 2002, Enron's cultural legacy, and the lessons it offers for corporate ethics and governance today.
