About this audiobook

🚨 What if billions of dollars could vanish into thin air, only to be found hidden in the loopholes of a creaking banking system? How can the same catastrophic financial fraud happen twice, almost to the day, exactly nine years apart?

šŸ“ˆ InĀ The Fraud: From Enron to Wirecard, authors Robert W. Downey and his team pull back the curtain on India's most infamous stock market scandals. This is the extraordinary, true story of Harshad Mehta, the "Big Bull" of 1992, and Ketan Parekh, the mastermind of the 2001 meltdown. It is a world of fast cars, luxury penthouses, and high-stakes gambling where banks, brokers, and politicians colluded to create a false market that eventually shattered the lives of millions of small investors.

šŸ” More than just a financial report, this book is a fast-paced narrative knitting together the life and times of the biggest players in the game. You will discover the "Deep Throat" insider secrets, the shocking regulatory lapses of the central banks, and the systematic collapse of corporate governance. From fake bank receipts to offshore corporate bodies, this investigative masterpiece exposes how respectable foreign investors and global banking giants were caught napping while daylight robberies were committed with ridiculous ease.
