An analyst for the Enron Corporation, the American energy company based in Houston, Texas, stares transfixed into two computer monitors in the London office at Grosvenor Place, opposite the Queen's official residence, Buckingham Palace. Two Cross of St George flags perch to the tops of the screens.

Fortune named Enron "America's Most Innovative Company" but has since become a popular symbol of willful corporate fraud and corruption.
