An internal investigation at the World Economic Forum (WEF) has found that its founder, Klaus Schwab, engaged in unauthorized spending, workplace misconduct, and inappropriate behavior, including towards female employees.
The probe also alleges that Schwab manipulated WEF research data to serve political interests, such as making Brexit appear less successful. Schwab has denied all allegations, claiming the accusations are false and criticizing the WEF board for breaching confidentiality. The scandal has raised serious questions about the WEF's credibility, its leadership, and the integrity of its global rankings and ESG frameworks.
The controversy threatens to undermine trust in the WEF and its role as a leading platform for international cooperation.
