The First International Bank of Grenada will go down in history as
one of the biggest banking swindles of all time. Aided and abetted
by a corrupt government, Van Brink and his satraps lured hundreds
of innocent investors to place their savings in a bank he claimed
"had a vision." With evangelical zeal he preached the gospel of his
bank, playing upon the religious and charitable aspect but also
promising outlandish returns on investments.
From Oregon to Nauru, to Grenada, to Uganda, Van Brink left a
trail of financial misery behind him.
"One Big Fib" is essential reading for anyone with an interest
in the shady world of offshore banking.
