An internal investigation at the World Economic Forum (WEF) has found that its founder, Klaus Schwab, engaged in unauthorized spending, inappropriate workplace behavior, and manipulation of research data.
Schwab allegedly billed over $1 million in questionable travel expenses, bullied staff, and made suggestive remarks to female employees. The probe also claims Schwab directed staff to alter global competitiveness rankings to discredit Brexit, raising concerns about the WEF's impartiality. Schwab has denied all allegations, while the WEF board and Schwab have publicly clashed over the handling and leaking of the investigation's findings.
The scandal has sparked debate over the credibility of the WEF and its leadership, with potential implications for its influence on global policy and ESG investing.
