Stanford International Bank “The Stanford companies were a complex, sprawling web of more than 100 companies, all of which were controlled and directly or indirectly owned by Allen Stanford. The companies were operated in a highly interconnected fashion (…) Stanford had operations in more than 100 discrete locations spanning 15 states in the United States and 13 countries in Europe, the Caribbean, Canada and Latin America. Stanford claimed to have more than 30,000 clients located in 133 countries. These companies were not arranged in a traditional corporate structure. They did not have a typical centralized management hierarchy, nor did they have a typical governance structure for the whole network. (…)” *Taken from:
