Description
The real story of Bernard "Bernie" Madoff and the Ponzi scheme that rocked the world
In the first comprehensive account of this financial mastermind's epic Ponzi scheme, Catastrophe exposes the real story behind Madoff's upstanding facade -- his confession, his family's involvement and his unlikely rise and incredible crash. The book defines and explains the whole diabolical debacle, including how he evaded SEC watchdogs and how his far reaching crime pervaded the world.
With first-hand victim accounts lending a human-interest viewpoint, the book peels back Madoff's persona layer by layer, revealing how he developed his elaborate deceit. Complete with the famous whistle-blower letter to the SEC, the now unavailable-to-the-public Madoff company mission statement, SEC filings, and a list of victims, Catastrophe offers a complete look at the white-collar crime of the century that will leave readers astounded.
