ABOUT THE BOOK
MORE ROGUE TRADERS uncovers the world of secrecy, acronyms, and complex financial schemes orchestrated by rogue traders.
Each chapter dives into the story of a specific trader whose actions led to the downfall of major financial institutions, resulting in losses of hundreds of millions—or even billions—of dollars. Filled with greed, corruption, and the bankers who tried to cover it up, this real-life tale of rise and fall exposes the high-stakes drama of financial crime.
