1Roles and the dated record

analysisGlisan’s case role combined treasury responsibilities, work on the Raptors and a Southampton investment. The Powers committee criticised his accounting work but qualified its Chewco assessment because he declined to be interviewed: it could not speak with certainty about his knowledge of the consolidation facts. 1

analysisHis guilty plea supplied a more specific account of Talon/Raptor I. Nominal outside capital of $30 million was to be returned with profit through a $41 million put-option payment before it bore the intended risk. Glisan pleaded guilty to conspiracy on 10 September 2003 and received 60 months, with forfeiture. The plea described Talon specifically; the other Raptor vehicles had distinct legal and capital arrangements. 2 1
