An internal investigation at the World Economic Forum (WEF) has found that its founder, Klaus Schwab, engaged in unauthorized spending, inappropriate workplace behavior, and manipulated research data for political purposes.
Schwab allegedly billed over $1 million in questionable travel expenses and sent inappropriate communications to female staffers. The probe also claims the WEF rigged data to discredit Brexit, raising concerns about the organization's credibility and the integrity of its global rankings. Schwab has denied all allegations, but the scandal has sparked a crisis of confidence in the WEF's leadership and its ESG framework.
The controversy has intensified debates about elite influence, transparency, and governance at one of the world's most prominent economic forums.
