| Summary |
2008: the world economy is hit by the worst crisis since 1929. Only one man, a young trader, is the alleged responsible for the first and most extravagant in a series of scandals that will shake the financial markets worldwide: Jerome Kerviel. Indeed, the biggest banking loss of its kind in history is discovered at the French bank Societe Generale and soon attributed to this quiet, low-profile, 31-year-old employee. Hired as a simple clerk at the same bank, eight years earlier, no one could have predicted that Kerviel would go so far, so fast. He became the star of the trading floor and nicknamed 'the cash machine' by his colleagues. But how could he gamble, supposedly alone - and in secret, 50 billion euros? |
