S2 E2 | Resilience after a very public mistake with rogue trader, Nick Leeson
Making Money Online with Lisa Johnson
In this episode I sat down with Nick Leeson, the trader known for bringing down the oldest bank in history. Like many I’d watched the film Rogue Trader, based on Nick’s autobiographical book and had questions about resilience and how you build a life and a legacy after such a huge public mistake. I also wanted to speak to Nick about the work he does now – helping people like me who have been the victims of fraud and how he got to be in this position after being arguably, one of the most famous fraudsters himself. The collapse of Barings Bank and Nick Leeson’s role in it is one of the...
