Event Description

Please join us as we present Bill Browder, author of Red Notice, with the prestigious James Joyce award via Zoom Webinar on October 7th at 6:30p.m. Browder founded and managed Hermitage Capital, which was the largest investment fund in Russia until 2005. In 2006, his lawyer, Sergei Magnitsky, was arrested and died in detention 11 months later, after he made and refused to withdraw accusations against senior interior ministry officials that they had participated in a $230m tax fraud against the Russian finance ministry. Since then, Browder has worked tireless to publicise Magnisky’s case, leading to the adoption of the Magnisky Act in the United States and the ‘Magnisky laws’ in the UK. The EU is currently drafting a similar regime. Submit Questions in our Google Form for Bill Browder on the Facebook event!
