On this page about Enron:
The lawsuit against Enron's directors, following the scandal, was notable in that the directors settled the suit by paying very significant amounts of money personally. In addition, the scandal caused the dissolution of the Arthur Andersen accounting firm, which had effects on the wider business world, as described in more detail below.
Enron still exists as an asset-less shell corporation. It emerged from bankruptcy in November of 2004 after one of the biggest and most complex bankruptcy cases in U.S. history. On September 7 2006, Enron sold Prisma Energy International Inc., its last remaining significant business, to Ashmore Energy International Ltd. Following the final sale of Prisma to Ashmore, Enron retained ownership of a controlling share in a related asset, the Colombian gas pipline operator Promigas, until January 2007, when Ashmore Energy completed its acquisition of that business as well. According to the final restructuring plan submitted to bankruptcy court, Enron will be dissolved at the conclusion of the restructuring process.[1]
