Summary

“The Crimes of Putin’s Trader,” hosted and reported by CNBC Senior Washington Correspondent Eamon Javers, explores the secret life of a young Russian oligarch, Vladislav Klyushin, who generated an illicit $93 million through insider corruption adding to his already massive fortune, and his Moscow-based cyber security firm that doubled as a front for hacking-driven insider trading on Wall Street. The podcast reveals real-time details of Klyushin and his employees in action, financial information they stole, companies they invested in, and millions of dollars in profits taken through illegal trades in the stock of prominent American companies as well as the private communications between the conspirators. Featuring exclusive interviews with the FBI investigators and Department of Justice prosecutors who led the investigation and a former Russian spy, Javers takes listeners inside the shocking Russian crime that is targeting the U.S. economy, with profound implications for anyone who has retirement accounts, investments, or works in corporate America.
