Who is “CW,” the FBI’s confidential witness? Or should we be asking where is Galleon’s CEO and co-founder Gary Rosenbach in these charges? Rosenbach co-founded Galleon in 1997 and was listed as a co-portfolio manager in the main Galleon International fund.
Buried in a footnote on page 11 in the FBI charge it says Raj interacted with CW since the mid-90’s in connection with the CW’s prior employment. Raj’s former employer was none other than Needham & Company. Todd Harrison of Miniville reminds us the Raj and Gary worked together at Needham, a top boutique firm that invested in tech companies. Keep in mind Rosenbach’s name is on some of the alleged insider traders like PeopleSupport Inc.
Rosenbach did not return an email for comment at press time.

Is Galleon toast? Still trading? What do their counter parties think of all this? Did the risk models take this into account?

Just signed up to galleon as a potential investor. Can't wait for the phone calls!

Cool reporting Dealbreaker. Why hasn't Clusterstock figured out or questioned the Rosenbach role yet?
If Gary is not charged then he should speak out.

A Moodys' analyst was alluded to as an informant, especially related to the Hilton trades.

With enough insider information you can lose real money.

Where is Todd Deutsch - star trader of the Galleon Captains fund who left last year.
Posted by LiterateUser , Oct 16, 2009 6:25PM
Wow, if anyone bothered to read the Criminal Information submitted to the court, it would be clear that the CW is not Gary. The Information clearly states that in mid 2005 the CW approached Galleon about getting a job there. Impossible for it to be Gary Rosenbach. Just read the damn document people.

Gary's still in Greenwich. Sold Crown Lane but currently in hiding off Glenville Rd. Seven figures cash stashed in his basement. Susie used to brag about it at cocktail parties until he caught wind of it. Between Raj and their tight friendship with Madoff boys they are dodging bullets.

@32 Hi Gary.

So the WSJ finally picks up the news that one of the Galleon inside info news leakers said Gary also did insider trading. As usual Dealbreaker is way ahead of the story.
If Gary has a sick family member then he really should speak up and prove that person is sick. Otherwise it's clear it was just an excuse to suddenly leave the firm and likely start reporting for the feds.
