BILLION DOLLAR WHALE [Paperback] Hope, Bradley and Wright, Tom

This is a story of greed of big corporations, how they let go of good practices and risk management when the carrot dangles in front. Basically big institutions also go rogue and seems in cohorts with the swindler. Everyone has a price, show the money and they will dance. Big stars of hollywood , big league bankers all have feet of clay.The way the story has been told is quite fascinating, seems like a fast paced thriller. I enjoyed reading it.

The frauds perpetrated are mentioned in an over simplistic manner and in a very linear fashion, almost as if there was not complexity in the same. But definitely well written and good perspectiveWill recommend a read to anyone interested in scams and frauds.

A very well written book with very good insight into working of a ambitious criminal and loopholes in the system

No fiction writer could have imagined such a storyline - greed has no boundaries I just hope that those big players involved get their just dues.

Gripping tale of how Jho Low, a man with little experience, was able to defraud the Malaysian state with the connivance of the Malaysian PM and a global cast of crooks from sovereign wealth fund managers, to Middle Eastern royals to shady bankers globally.

Just amazing. Developing country's corruption aided by developed country's corrupt institutions under the garb of capitalism. Hats off to the authors.

Amazing to figure out what greed can do to ones morality and how unscrupulous people can get to make money and moreover flaunt it.

What interested me about the book was the in depth nature of the narration.On the other hand, certain sequences are very repetitive and slows down the narration a bit.

Ce qui est essentiel est que le livre a été bien livré. Le livre est intéressant à lire et décrit bien le vol de plusieurs milliards de USD au détriment du gouvernement malaisien.

Very entertaining story. Couldn’t put it down.
