Maggiori informazioni sul libro
A penetrating look at a company at the nexus of big business, government, and defense, this private equity firm manages over $13 billion in funds, with investments spanning defense contractors, telecommunications, and aerospace. However, its influence runs deeper. The firm boasts executives from high-profile political and business backgrounds, including a former secretary of defense, a former CIA deputy director, a former secretary of state, a former president, and a former UK prime minister. Notably, Osama Bin Laden's estranged family was also invested in the group until recently. Journalist Dan Briody explores this complex organization, which some view as a symbol of corporate cronyism, conflicts of interest, and war profiteering. His examination reveals a world filled with clandestine meetings, quid pro quo deals, and the interplay of power among some of the most influential figures globally. The narrative promises a thrilling journey through a landscape of bitter ironies and rivalries. Briody, an award-winning business journalist, previously broke the story on the firm’s inner workings and has become a key source for coverage of this intriguing subject, with his work featured in prominent publications.
