An internal investigation at the World Economic Forum (WEF) has found its founder, Klaus Schwab, engaged in unauthorized spending, workplace misconduct, and inappropriate behavior toward female staff.
Schwab and his wife reportedly benefited from over $1 million in questionable travel expenses, and he is accused of manipulating WEF research data to serve political interests, including allegedly rigging reports to discredit Brexit. The scandal has raised serious concerns about the WEF's credibility and the integrity of its global rankings. Schwab has denied all allegations, claiming the accusations are false and criticizing the WEF board's handling of the probe.
The controversy has sparked a wider debate about elite influence, transparency, and governance at one of the world's most prominent international organizations.
