An internal investigation at the World Economic Forum (WEF) has found that its founder, Klaus Schwab, engaged in unauthorized spending, workplace misconduct, and inappropriate behavior toward female staff.
The probe also alleges that Schwab manipulated WEF research data to undermine Brexit, raising concerns about the organization's impartiality. Schwab and his wife reportedly benefited from over $1 million in questionable travel expenses, and he is accused of sending suggestive emails to female executives. The scandal has sparked a crisis of credibility for the WEF, with Schwab denying all allegations and criticizing the board's handling of the investigation.
The revelations have fueled broader criticism of elite organizations and their influence on global politics.
