Billion Dollar Whale: The Man Who Fooled Wall Street, Hollywood, and the World
Description
This investigative account reveals how Jho Low, a charismatic social climber with no official title, helped turn Malaysia’s 1MDB investment fund into the center of an unprecedented global fraud. Drawing on extensive reporting, it follows the money through elite banks, political circles, luxury real estate, Hollywood productions, and extravagant international parties—while examining how powerful institutions repeatedly failed to act. More than a portrait of one audacious con artist, the book is a gripping exploration of greed, corruption, celebrity culture, and the vulnerabilities of the global financial system.
