Billion Dollar Whale The Man Who Fooled Wall Street, Hollywood, and the World By Tom Wright and Bradley Hope
Described as a "modern Gatsby" by Bill Gates, "Billion Dollar Whale" unravels the breathtaking saga of Jho Low, a Malaysian graduate from Wharton who orchestrated one of the largest financial frauds in history. With the aid of Goldman Sachs, Low pilfered over $5 billion from an investment fund, evading the scrutiny of global financial regulators.
From extravagant parties to financing Hollywood films like "The Wolf of Wall Street," Low's audacious scheme captivated the world's attention. But as authorities closed in, he became an international fugitive, his assets seized, and criminal charges looming.
Marked as a Best Book of 2018 by the Financial Times and Fortune, "Billion Dollar Whale" offers a riveting exposé of hubris and greed, joining the ranks of classic financial thrillers like "Liar's Poker" and "Den of Thieves."
