Information About

Harken Energy




Harken has attracted attention because of the role played in its affairs in the 1980s by George W. Bush , later the President Of The United States . Bush, while a corporate officer, sold stock in Harken shortly before the company announced substantial losses. This transaction resulted in a U.S. Securities And Exchange Commission investigation of probable Insider Trading ; see George W. Bush's Business And Early Political Career . A Harken transaction associated with the endowment fund of Harvard University has also been questioned; see Harken Energy Scandal and Harken board member from Harvard, Michael R. Eisenson .
