apply your critical thinking skills before posting. $85M in 2014 dollars is $113M in 2024 dollars, and something tells me McKinsey didn't just leave the money sitting in a high yield savings account all this time

Oh so still less than the $123M fine? As for what they did with the money, I get the point that they could have reinvested it and made additional profit but I find it way too speculative to be worth discussion especially when the $85M number doesn't appear to be the marginal value of the bribe and is possibly inflated already.
