About

edit

Manuel António Gomes de Almeida de Pinho (born 28 October 1954) is a former Portuguese Minister of Economy and Innovation (2005–09) who subsequently became an energy policy academic (2010-17) under circumstances that led to indictments in Portugal in 2017 and in 2019 on multiple charges of passive corruption and money laundering. According to those charges, Pinho improperly benefited, by at least 1.2 billion euros, Portugal’s EDP-Energias de Portugal electricity company in exchange for it paying Columbia University to hire him after he left government; and he received, also while in office, at least 4.5 million euros in secret monthly offshore payments from his prior and subsequent boss Ricardo Espírito Santo Salgado whose Espírito Santo Financial Group benefited, according to Pinho's indictment, from several of Pinho's decisions as minister.
