In his work
The Spider Network, David Enrich takes his readers behind the scenes in the investigation of the Libor scandal.
A small group of brokers and bankers manipulated one of the most critical interest rates, led by a troubled and gifted mathematician named Tom Hayes.
The latter led several traders with nicknames such as Big Nose, Abbo, and Gollum to exploit the system and make millions, as their actions affected everything from student loans to mortgages across the globe.
The scheme, which was known as the
Spider Network, was finally brought down by betrayal and chaos.
In 2020, David Enrich published the work
Dark Towers, in which he exposed how Deutsche Bank has links to the likes of Donald Trump, Nazi Germany, and Russian oligarchs.
It begins with the mysterious death of Bill Broeksmit, the executive, in 2014. The author traces the history of the institution from chasing Wall Street profits in unethical ways to aiding dictators.
The bank was involved in manipulating the market, had deals with Jeffrey Epstein, among many other clients riddled with scandals, in addition to being involved in money laundering.
It showcases how the institution’s greed made the bank into an international menace.
