Hitting Paydirt: The Citizens Budget Commission & the Carnegie Hall Corporation

Reminds me of an old adage: Southampton is for presidents; East Hampton is for vice-presidents.

Under the guise of philanthropic arts and civic volunteerism, two New York City based organizations in particular, the Citizens Budget Commission, and the Carnegie Hall Corporation, provide for a near perfect network between that class of self-dealing one-percenters who stood in alignment with the bounder figureheads of federal and municipal authority to effect a conspiracy on such a grand scale as the false-flag attacks of September 11th, 2001.

Not forgetting the Council of International Relations mind you. Just that the New York City real estate development and insurance fraud components of 9/11 stole the show, so to speak.

The Citizens Budget Commission (CBC), describes itself as "a not-for-profit civic organization that influences constructive changes in the finances and services of New York City and New York State government." This they accomplish through research, evaluation and analysis of City and State finances and fiscal affairs, which should indicate a watchdog function for the public good, although that bit is left unsaid, while "constructive change" is open to some subject-object confusion.

Perhaps this "public service" organization's founding in the economic dark days of 1932 is relevant. One current commission board member is the highly successful and influential chairman of Odyssey Investments, Stephen Berger, who in his mid-thirties served as the Executive Director of the New York State Emergency Control Board for the City of New York during a similar municipal financial crisis which peaked in 1976. His job as interloper was to slash budgets and fire municipal employees.

Berger then went on to serve as the Executive Director of the quasi-public Port Authority of New York and New Jersey from 1985 to 1990, where among other tasks, he "was responsible for directing New York's and New Jersey's...real estate investments," so he knew the lay of the land, and presumably, the laws of omertà.

In between and overlapping these jobs, Berger served as chairman of the Board of the United States Railway Association, a "nonprofit corporation," established by federal law, where his role was described as being the "United States Government 'Banker" who was responsible for structuring Conrail's "emergence from bankruptcy."

"Emergence from bankruptcy," is an artful figure of speech given that the federal government had sunk seven billion U.S. taxpayer dollars into subsidizing and upgrading the railroad lines over the previous 11 years, even though actual control and decision making remained in the hands of the "advisory" corporation led by Berger. This "semi-private" arraignment absolved legislators of a responsibility to transform the railroad, if possible, into profitability and guarantee tens of thousands of working class jobs at risk. Essentially, all that was required of lawmakers was the reworking of regulations that governed the service and infrastructure. Thus profitability was achieved, shortly before the railroad was privatized, but this might have been due to Conrail also being freed of responsibility to pay any state or federal business taxes.

The legal dynamics underlying this charade were expressed in an April 25, 1986, Associated Press article, US Railway Association Fighting Agency Over Ethics Probe, by Jeff Barker, which reported on the thwarting of a probe by the acting Transportation Department inspector general, Joseph Genovese, begun at the instigation of Rep. Michael Oxley, Republican of Ohio, who expressed concern about Berger's "multiple interests and associations with groups and organizations with a direct stake in the future of Conrail."

In a letter, Oxley said these associations of Berger's "may call into question his independence and impartiality, and thereby adversely affect public confidence in the integrity of USRA."

The U.S. Railway Association refused to answer any questions, saying the Department of Transportation was "overstepping its authority by trying to compel information about internal association matters."

The AP reported the association as saying "that Berger, as a member of its board, is not covered by the standards of conduct of association employees," which prohibit "activities that might create the appearance of bias," or to paraphrase Nixon: when the chairman lowers the bar, it's still above the law.

If this weren't bad enough, a sale of Conrail was then on track to the Norfolk Southern Corp., whose $1.2 billion bid had "the backing of Transportation Secretary Elizabeth Dole and has been approved by the Senate." Secretary Dole's husband, Senator Bob Dole of Kansas, was serving at that time as Senate Majority Leader. Since Conrail was eventually sold to investors in a different transaction for $1.6 billion, this incipient Dole-supported deal stood to risk a loss to taxpayers of $400,000,000---a really tidy sum in the mid 1980's. How would a sum like that be equitably divided between members working together on a large team I wonder?

What makes Berger's role in this matter even more intriguing is that seven months prior he had also been appointed executive director of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, "a public agency," which had been publicly opposing the proposed sale of Conrail to Norfolk Southern Corp. The AP reported that
Berger has recused himself from Conrail sale matters, according to Patrick Falvey, the authority's general counsel. "Mr. Berger has not been involved in the Port Authority's expression of a position or formulation of a position on the Conrail sale issue," Falvey said Friday.
While Falvey said Berger could not be interviewed on the matter, Berger said at a recent Senate Appropriations hearing that if he were a cynic, he might believe the probe was part of "a political hatchet job."
"Fortunately, I'm not a cynic," Berger said.
Well I think it is cynical to state a distinction between, first, an "expression of a position" by the agency, then subsequently, the "formulation of a position," [one as yet unexpressed?] especially when it's being denied you've taken part in either. Moreover, the idea that Berger could have recused himself from any backroom horse-trading in New York is made more implausible by his direct lack of cooperation with officials in Washington:
"Since we believe that such detailed questions concerning the internal operations of the association are neither an appropriate subject for review by your office nor pertinent to the issues raised by Congressman Oxley, we declined to respond," Cary Dickieson, the association's executive director, wrote Genovese on March 31.
His letter said the association was independent of the Transportation Department, "and therefore is not within the audit and investigative powers conferred on your office ... "
Genovese's April 18 reply said: "In my judgment, the questions raised by a member of Congress concerning the independence and impartiality of Mr. Berger bear a sufficiently close relationship to DOT's statutory responsibilities to place them within the (Inspector General's) authority to review."
"Sufficiently close?" The setup of a legal authority that is outside any audit or investigative powers seems the design purpose---to circumvent the requirements for "public good" inherent in civic actions in a democratic republic. This represents to me a conspiracy at its very highest level. The Port Authority is identical in conception as a legal loophole, with the ability to issue no-risk public debt secured by taxation to fund imperial projects that are doomed or designed to fail, like the World Trade Center towers; and let's not forget, they collect tolls and user fees while steering opportunities to the favored few insiders, all without any semblance of public accountability since the whole system is totally opaque by force of law.

It doesn't take a fine reading to see the private agendas slipping into view:
Oxley had noted that Odyssey Partners was a member of a group that owned 48.9 percent of the Chicago Milwaukee Corp. as of April 1985. Among other members of the group were a bank, an investment accountant and the president of a private investment firm - all of whom are members of a group of that has made a rival bid for Conrail, according to Oxley.
Stephen Berger's "public service" reeks of the same inexplicable absence of the rational as found in the military's failed flight response on September 11th. Since 2005, Berger has been chairman of the New York State Commission on Health Care Facilities in the 21st Century, where he is designated to decide which 50 State hospitals must be closed in order to restore the medical system to fiscal health. And how did the system get broken in the first place?

But his name is just one out of an unwieldy 129 currently listed as Citizens Budget Commission board members, and I don't mean to pick solely on him. Other names that standout: Larry Silverstein, of Silverstein Properties, Inc., who briefly was master subtenant of the privatized World Trade Center, shortly before its unprecedented and entire destruction at the hands of 19 Muslim terrorists with box cutters, the majority of whose true identities the FBI never even tried to establish.

Then there's Jules B. Kroll, who in 1972 established Kroll Associates Inc. as the first in his slew of like incorporations designed to squeeze every possible nickle out of inflated, fear-based business budgets.

A list of his accomplishments includes an unselfconscious example of counterplundering, reclaiming what dictators (politicians friendly to the United States by another name) had stolen from their nation's people, as if such a thing were impossible to imagine occurring in the U.S.
In the early 1990s, he [Mr. Kroll] was worldwide renowned for his firm's success in searching for assets hidden by Jean-Claude Duvalier, Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos, and Saddam Hussein.
What international charter would empower Kroll to do financial forensic investigations that the U.S., or World Bank couldn't do? Americans believing in their own publicity surely must signal the end of an empire. The pattern of obliviousness has become too clear to overlook:
He served as the Vice Chairman of International Advisory Board at Marsh & McLennan Companies, Inc. until June 2008.
Since Marsh & McLennan had their own risk management division, if Mr. Kroll were a legitimate business competitor he would make for a very unsympathetic Marsh board member---at any level

Bloomberg's Businessweek, which serves as a primary source for information on these board members, has what sounds like a description of Kroll founding an entire service industry:
By employing former prosecutors, law enforcement officials, journalists, and academics who utilized sophisticated fact-finding techniques to address decision-makers' needs for accurate information, Mr. Kroll established investigations and risk consulting as valuable corporate services.
What new need would legitimate businesses have for research and intelligence derived from former prosecutors and law enforcement officials, who were experienced in dealing with criminal activity? Since the only "risk consultant" I'd trust is the one who promises not to create any in return for my regular payola, does 1972 represent the turning point in a privatization of government intelligence activity, what had been officially off-the-books anyway?

For instance, Kroll Government Services, a division of Kroll Inc. founded in "early 2000," with the help of William Bratton, former police commissioner of New York City, provides consulting and independent investigation services to police departments. We are told that
"Kroll grew the division to exclusively serve government clients at a historically critical time, during the development of the Department of Homeland Security."
But the work example Kroll gives seems mundane, and not critical
The team soon won a major contract as Independent Monitor for the Los Angeles Police Department, a role that continued for nearly a decade.
With the following, we now know who is buying all those hollow-point bullets, and why the deficit has soared
Kroll Government Services was acquired by Veritas Capital in May 2009, becoming KeyPoint Government Solutions. KeyPoint is now part of a family of companies that aggregate more than $6 billion in annual government sales and employ more than 50,000 men and women.

Make that 49,999 men and women:

Surely it doesn't take the combined wattage of 83 Carnegie Hall Corporation board members to run a damn Music Hall. Mixed in is a celebrated cellist or two, and an occasional soprano, who trade their brand-names as artistic cover in exchange for eating out, but compared to these super luminaries of lucre, artistes are but dim bulbs.

Look at the way the broader board culture of Carnegie Hall is conducted in a public-private venture like the outcome of, and income from, the private corporation's lease to real estate developers of New York City-owned land abutting the Hall to the east. On this, with special zoning bonuses as a gift from the city, was built an enormous oversized tower; and just further to the east, separated by only the twenty-foot row-house width of the old Russian Tea Room, was built a second oversized tower. The only relationship between these two structures given any consideration was maximum profitability. It must be disarming to live on the seventieth floor and look out your east-facing windows and directly into your neighber's domestic goings-on, like a verticle Levittown but without any chance for conviviality.

As its payment for the ground rent, the city takes in a base amount equal to what the annual tax levy should be, but in a realistic business transaction that amount would be due the city on top of what such prime 57th Street square footage should earn annually for its citizen-owners.

It all finally caught up to the cabel, in a November 15, 2012, audit report from the Office of the New York City Comptroller, Carnegie Hall Corporation's Compliance with Its City Lease Agreement, which lists $8 million in profits made by the tower's owners---of which the city was supposed to get a small percentage---through an alteration in the lease agreement was made to look like business operating expenses. While the city never knew of, nor signed off on, any changes to the agreement, the plausable deniablity extends even to the real estate corporation managing the tower, since there was no official action, just a mid-level manager's letter in support.

September 1, 2011, NYT, Silver Lake’s Hutchins Named a Director of the New York Fed, by MICHAEL J. DE LA MERCED,

Private equity is again getting a seat at the table at the Federal Reserve Bank of New York.

On Thursday, the regulator named Glenn H. Hutchins, a co-founder and co-head of Silver Lake, as a new director. His appointment was effective as of Wednesday.

Mr. Hutchins will serve out the rest of the term vacated by Jeffrey B. Kindler, who resigned as Pfizer‘s chief executive in December. The term runs through December 2012.

The New York Fed also named Terry J. Lundgren, the chairman and chief executive of Macy’s, as a new director. He will serve out the rest of the term of General Electric‘s chief executive, Jeffrey R. Immelt, which expires on Dec. 31.

Mr. Hutchins is not the first private equity executive to serve on the New York Fed’s board: Stephen Friedman, a former Goldman Sachs chief executive, was the chairman of Stone Point Capital when he served as the Fed’s chairman until May 2009.

At Silver Lake, Mr. Hutchins, a veteran of the Clinton administration, has helped create one of the biggest technology investors around. Among the firm’s notable recent transactions are buying control of Skype in 2009 — and then selling it to Microsoft earlier this year for $8.5 billion; taking part in a $950 million financing round for Groupon; and teaming up with Kohlberg Kravis Roberts to buy the Go Daddy Group for about $2.25 billion.

"The board of directors is a key link between the bank and the region, and Mr. Hutchins and Mr. Lundgren have expertise in two critical industries — retail and technology — that are major employers in our area," William Dudley, the New York Fed’s president, said in a statement.

October 20, 2004, NYT, Citigroup Forces Resignations of 3 Senior Executives, by Landon Thomas Jr.,

Three senior executives at Citigroup were forced to resign yesterday as Charles O. Prince, the firm's chief executive, delivered on a promise to improve the bank's sullied reputation in the aftermath of its private banking operations being shut down in Japan last month.

The three who resigned are Deryck C. Maughan, the chairman of Citigroup's extensive international operations; Thomas W. Jones, the head of the bank's asset management division; and Peter Scaturro, the chief executive of private banking. All were members of the firm's management committee and their departures represent the most significant exodus of top executives since Mr. Prince succeeded Sanford I. Weill as chief executive a little more than a year ago.

The dismissals were announced in an internal e-mail message sent to Citigroup employees yesterday evening. The message stated that the asset management and private banking units of the bank would report immediately to Robert B. Willumstad, president and chief operating officer of Citigroup.

Last month, Citigroup was forced to close its private banking operations in Japan after regulators found that a lack of internal controls enabled certain employees to engage in fraudulent transactions.

Mr. Prince and the bank, already facing the prospect of suits from Enron creditors and charges of irregular bond trades in Britain, then hired Eugene Ludwig, a former comptroller of the currency at the United States Treasury, to conduct an internal review of the matter.

According to a person briefed on the review, its conclusion was that Mr. Jones, Mr. Scaturro and Mr. Maughan should be held responsible for lack of oversight in Japan. Mr. Jones, Mr. Scaturro and Mr. Maughan could not be reached for comment late yesterday.

Mr. Scaturro reported to Mr. Jones, and the two executives had broad responsibility for the bank's private banking operations in Japan. The departure of Mr. Maughan, whose responsibility for the Japan operations was less direct, underscores the depth to which Mr. Prince is willing to burrow into Citigroup's executive suite in his drive to enforce a culture of accountability at the sprawling financial institution.

Mr. Maughan's departure could be seen as all the more embarrassing because he styled himself as a Japan expert of sorts. He is a trustee of the Japan Society in New York and worked in Japan as a fast-rising executive at Salomon Brothers in the 1980's. Until recently, he was responsible for all of Citigroup's business in Japan. He was also recently knighted.

Mr. Maughan's stature at the bank derived in large part from his close relationship with Mr. Weill, who remains chairman. Mr. Maughan has frequently socialized with Mr. Weill and is a trustee with him at Carnegie Hall.

And, though the dismissals bore the stamp of Mr. Prince, a lawyer who for years worked alongside Mr. Weill as to build Citigroup into a financial colossus, they were completed with the full knowledge of the board and Mr. Weill, a person close to the board said yesterday.

In recent months, Mr. Prince has become increasingly frustrated with the seeming drumbeat of ethical and regulatory lapses at Citigroup. On a recent conference call with analysts he said that such behavior would be dealt with in the near future.

"I just want to make it very clear to all of you that for all of us, examples like that are simply not acceptable," he said, referring to the sanctions in Japan, while adding that action had been taken and that there would be "more to come."

Mr. Jones's corporate roots also date back to Salomon Brothers, where he was the head of the investment bank's asset management unit.

Although the closing of the bank's private banking operations in Japan will barely dent the bank's net profits, which were $17 billion last year, the ignominy of the world's largest financial institution having its private bankers expelled from such an important market, together with the other regulatory lapses, has cast a pall over the bank and its stock price. Citigroup's stock has been a weak performer during Mr. Prince's reign and the resulting low valuation has made all the harder for the bank to make the acquisitions that were Mr. Weill's trademark and that analysts say are necessary to keep the bank growing at an acceptable pace. Shares of Citigroup fell 63 cents, to $43.59 yesterday.

Last month, Mr. Prince shook up his management team by appointing Sallie L. Krawcheck, a former securities industry analyst, as chief financial officer and moving Todd S. Thomson to assume her job as head of research and retail brokerage. Mr. Thomson will now have oversight of the private banking unit, the memorandum said yesterday. Mr. Prince has said that Mr. Thomson and Ms. Krawcheck are strong candidates to succeed him as chief executive.

He was Chairman of KKR Asia from 2005 to 2009. Prior to joining KKR, Sir Deryck served as Vice Chairman of Citigroup from 1998 to 2004, as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Salomon Brothers from 1992 to 1997 and as Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Salomon Brothers Asia from 1986 to 1991. He also was Vice Chairman of the NYSE from 1996 to 2000 and Chairman of the US-Japan Business Council from 2002 to 2004. Prior to joining Salomon Brothers in 1983, Sir Deryck worked at Goldman Sachs. He served in H.M. Treasury (UK Economics and Finance Ministry) from 1969 to 1979. He is also a director of GlaxoSmithKline and Reuters. The Board of Directors concluded that Sir Deryck's internationally focused leadership positions at KKR, a global leader in private equity, fixed income and capital markets, and at Citigroup and Salomon Brothers allow Sir Deryck to provide valuable insights on international finance and that he should serve as a director of BlackRock.

May 28, 1992, Los Angeles Times, Maughan Tapped to Lead Scandalized Salomon Bros, by Linda Grant,

NEW YORK — Deryck C. Maughan, who catapulted into the chief operating officer's job at Salomon Bros. last August after a scandal forced four top officers to resign, was named chairman and chief executive of the investment bank Wednesday.

Warren E. Buffett, interim chairman of parent company Salomon Inc., announced the promotion in a press release that praised Maughan's "moral leadership" and "character" as well as his operational stewardship of the crisis-ridden firm the last nine months.

Maughan's promotion, which takes effect immediately, paves the way for Buffett to leave Salomon. Buffett's principal remaining task is to find someone to replace him as chief executive of the holding company.

Said Buffett: "Deryck assumed the job at a time when Salomon's regulators were understandably outraged and its staff was dismayed. Working seven days a week, quite often 18 hours a day, he personified the integrity and professionalism of the firm." [Pure Doublespeak]

The move, which was expected, follows a settlement of fraud allegations last week with several government agencies, including the Treasury and Justice departments, the Federal Reserve Board and the Securities and Exchange Commission. Salomon agreed to pay fines and penalties of $290 million to settle charges that the firm submitted billions of dollars in fraudulent bids in Treasury auctions used to finance public debt.
[Shitting in the Nest]

Buffett's announcement credited Maughan's "grace and goodwill" as "integral to our settlement with the government."

"I'm on a real high," Maughan said. "I'm pleased about the promotion because it reflects Warren's confidence in the firm. . . . We're in a good position to move forward now, doing what we do best: serving clients and committing capital."

Maughan, 44-year-old son of a British coal miner, was thrown into the breach last August only months after returning to New York as co-head of investment banking from an assignment in Japan, where he built the Salomon office into a moneymaking showcase.

In an emergency session the day after former Chief Executive John H. Gutfreund and several other executives resigned, 12 Salomon officers met with Buffett to begin picking up the pieces of the shattered firm. [Gutfreund's apartment is remembered as having been overdecorated.]

Buffett invited them one by one into a nearby room, where he asked: "Who should run the firm?" Ten out of the 12 answered, "Deryck Maughan."

The tall, soft-spoken Maughan served for 10 years as a British Treasury official before he was recruited to investment banking in London by Wall Street's Goldman Sachs in 1979. He later moved to Salomon. When tapped as chief operating officer, he immediately reorganized and downsized the firm.

Said Buffett: "Rather than freeze the firm in the headlights until the investigations were over, Deryck almost immediately began looking at how to improve the firm. Some of the operational changes he put in place have already had a favorable influence on profits."

His most controversial changes were laying off a sizable percentage of Salomon's equity traders and investment bankers and slashing bonuses.

Salomon's profit has suffered for the past two quarters as investment banking and underwriting clients awaited the conclusion of the government's case against the firm before resuming business ties. Last week's settlement was a victory for Buffett and Maughan, because the firm escaped criminal indictment and will be allowed to retain its status as a "primary dealer" of government debt. With those issues resolved, Salomon is now in a position to compete on an equal footing with competitors. [Codependent Capitalism]
