The Multibillion International Bribery and Corruption Scandal: Where Was the Oversight? Cody Crance Valdosta State University
Journal of Business Cases and Applications Volume 27 The Multibillion International Bribery and Corruption Scandal: Where was the Oversight? Cody Crance Valdosta State University Raymond J. Elson Valdosta State University ABSTRACT $6.5 billion! This is the amount of the multibillion-dollar international fraud allegedly masterminded by a flamboyant financier with a taste for Hollywood and aided by bankers from a leading global investment banking, securities and investment management firm (the firm). The assets were misappropriated from a Malaysian investment fund and used to purchase original artwork and diamond necklaces, to finance a Hollywood blockbuster movie, to provide gifts to celebrities, and other luxurious items. Federal prosecutors obtained guilty pleas on bribery and money laundering charges from at least one of the bankers and filed charges against the financier and other bankers. The case discusses the fraud and the various participants in both the US and Malaysia and the role played by firm management in allowing the fraud to occur. Keywords: fraud, international bribery, corporate scandal, corruption, oversight Copyright statement: authors retain the copyright to the manuscripts published in aabri journals.

Yes, of approximately $6.5 billion. The funds were used for extravagant parties, to purchase yachts and expensive jewelry, to entertain Hollywood celebrities, and to finance the 2013 movie “The Wolf of Wall Street” How could this leading global firm which was established over 150 years ago be linked to this type of scandal? A discussion of the parties involved, and the alleged misappropriation might provide clarity.
