It was among the first U.S. firms to open overseas offices, although its history includes controversial actions such as aiding Nazi Germany's arms buildup and involvement in the 1954 Guatemalan coup d'état. Sullivan & Cromwell's lawyers have been involved in various controversies, including work with tobacco companies, an insider trading scandal, criticism for representation of the FTX estate in the FTX cryptocurrency exchange collapse and the political background checks of candidates.
