An internal investigation at the World Economic Forum (WEF) has found its founder, Klaus Schwab, engaged in workplace misconduct, unauthorized spending, and inappropriate behavior, including towards female employees.
The probe also alleges Schwab manipulated WEF research data to serve political interests, notably to discredit Brexit. Schwab has publicly denied all accusations, claiming the board breached confidentiality agreements and that the findings are false. The scandal has raised serious questions about the WEF's credibility, its leadership, and the integrity of its global rankings.
The controversy threatens the organization's reputation and the legitimacy of its ESG and governance frameworks.
