Expert Revisited: Bill Browder - Putin's #1 Enemy

Equity Mates Investing Podcast - A podcast by Equity Mates Media

Categories:

Bill Browder is the CEO and co-founder of Hermitage Capital Management, which at one time was the largest foreign portfolio investor in Russia, and in 1997 was the best performing fund in the world - up 238%! Bill was the driving force behind the Magnitsky Act, a law to punish Russian human rights violators, which was signed into law by President Obama in 2012 and subsequently adopted by a number of governments around the world including Canada in 2017 and the UK in 2018. He is the author of the best-selling book Red Notice: How I became Putin’s Number 1 Enemy. Given the current World events in the Ukraine, we felt it appropriate to re-share this episode recorded last May (2021).In this conversation, Bill reflects on the unique discovery of first investment, the way his investing perspectives have shifted over the decades, the global impacts of the Magnitsky Act (and the international perspective of Australia's position on the policy), and why he thinks the legal disruptor app Do Not Pay is a fantastic company.*****Calling all bulls, bears and party animals.
