| Résumé : | Rogue Trader takes us from Nick Leeson's humble beginnings as a Watford plasterer's son to the very heart of the cut-and-thrust empire he made his own: SIMEX, the Singapore money market that witnessed both Nick's phenomenal rise to prominence and devastating chaos in one of the most stressful jobs in the world, showing us the frenetic culture of the trading pit revealing not only he forces that led him to use the infamous 88888 account, but also the ways in which he dealt with the losses, avoided detection, and participated in the near-farcical endgame which sparked the most extraordinary news story in recent times. The world marvelled as he and his then-wife Lisa (who until then has known nothing of the losses) made their escape as the bank collapsed around them, only to return to acknowledge the results of Nick's activities and face their onerous consequences. |
