Description
The telecommunications company WorldCom collapsed and filed bankruptcy in 2002. Worldcom had engaged in fraudulent practices for some time before the collapse. The scandal this brought to corporate boards and regulators led to a serious distrust of corporations on the part of large and small investors alike. The financial disaster this brought onto individual and professional investors was chaotic, often crippling and led to major legislation to produce more responsible corporations and add trust back into the skittish market.
