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 is accused of billing over $1 million in questionable travel expenses, sending inappropriate emails to female staff, and intervening to lower the UK's productivity ranking to make Brexit appear as a failure. The scandal has sparked outrage over elite interference and raised serious concerns about the credibility of the WEF and its leadership. Schwab has denied all allegations, but the controversy has intensified divisions within the organization and damaged its reputation.
The WEF board and Schwab are now publicly disputing the findings and the handling of the investigation.
