Today, America is remembering the trial of the last century and preparing for the trials of this one. Vietnam already had theirs, and the details of the case are pretty crazy. Truong My Lan: Vietnamese billionaire sentenced to death for $44bn fraud. “Vietnamese law prohibits any individual from holding more than 5% of the shares in any bank. But prosecutors say that through hundreds of shell companies and people acting as her proxies, Truong My Lan actually owned more than 90% of Saigon Commercial. They accused her of using that power to appoint her own people as managers, and then ordering them to approve hundreds of loans to the network of shell companies she controlled. The amounts taken out are staggering. Her loans made up 93% of all the bank’s lending.” (Even Allen Weisselberg is shocked by that level of fraud.)
