🥷 Former Goldman Sachs executive starts prison sentence over #1MDB scandal
Tim Leissner, a former top executive at Goldman Sachs, has begun serving a 2-year prison sentence for his role in a massive financial fraud.
Leissner admitted helping siphon about $4.5B from Malaysia’s sovereign wealth fund 1MDB.
The case took 8 years to reach sentencing and ultimately led to the collapse of Malaysia’s government. Goldman Sachs paid over $5B to settle related charges.
Leissner cooperated with prosecutors and became the key witness in the 2022 trial of his former colleague Roger Ng. The scheme was orchestrated by Malaysian financier Jho Low, who continues to deny wrongdoing and has been a fugitive since 2018.
One of the largest financial scandals of the decade is still not fully closed.
