Named a Best Book of 2018 by the Financial Times and Fortune, this
thrilling (Bill Gates) New York Times bestseller exposes how a
modern Gatsby swindled over $5 billion with the aid of Goldman
Sachs in the heist of the century (Axios). Now a #1 international
bestseller, Billion Dollar Whale is an epic tale of white-collar
crime on a global scale (Publishers Weekly), revealing how a young
social climber from Malaysia pulled off one of the biggest heists
in history. In 2009, a chubby, mild-mannered graduate of the
University of Pennsylvania's Wharton School of Business named Jho
Low set in motion a fraud of unprecedented gall and magnitude--one
that would come to symbolize the next great threat to the global
financial system. Over a decade, Low, with the aid of Goldman Sachs
and others, siphoned billions of dollars from an investment
fund--right under the nose of global financial industry watchdogs.
Low used the money to finance elections, purchase luxury real
estate, throw champagne-drenched parties, and even to finance
Hollywood films like The Wolf of Wall Street. By early 2019, with
his yacht and private jet reportedly seized by authorities and
facing criminal charges in Malaysia and in the United States, Low
had become an international fugitive, even as the U.S. Department
of Justice continued its investigation. Billion Dollar Whale has
joined the ranks of Liar's Poker, Den of Thieves, and Bad Blood as
a classic harrowing parable of hubris and greed in the financial
world.
