Coupled with the dehumanization of the real "authority" in large government. A true story that we rarely, rarely hear.

I thought that perhaps it would be dry, or more likely over my head because I know so little about the world of finance. Fortunately, my fears proved unfounded; the book was very approachable and entertaining.
There are two parts to the author's story, both of which are equally involving but in different ways. The first pp or so outline how Browder developed his business in Russia and he details his stunning wins and losses in a disarmingly honest and This book was a complete surprise to me.
The first pp or so outline how Browder developed his business in Russia and he details his stunning wins and losses in a disarmingly honest and humble way.
I found myself quite amused by his adventures and his straight-forward manner of story-telling kept me engaged.
The second part of the book is much darker as he finds himself on the wrong side of some very powerful men - with truly heartbreaking results.
The tragedy he feels partly responsible for turns Browder into a human rights activist as he seeks justice for victims of Russian human rights violators.
His quest for retribution is equally engrossing. Jan 16, HBalikov rated it really liked it. How often will it be involving his friend in Russia?
Browder recounts how he came to the financial world and how he became an expert in privatization of state-run companies in Eastern Europe and Russia.
He has an excellent sense of how to tell an anecdote, holding the reader spellbound until the punch line. Or even better — a thousand bars of gold?
Why not a ship to sail the world? He gets rich but then tries, according to his narrative, to change the underlying game and address the corruption that is endemic to the oligarchic era.
In doing so, he becomes an enemy of the Putin regime and his life and the lives of those around him are in constant jeopardy.
The book places Browder near the center of Russian history during this period. Browder makes it sound as if the things that happened were first directed at him and then, to cover the vendetta, broadened to apply to other Americans and foreigners.
Russian business culture is closer to that of a prison yard than anything else. In prison, all you have is your reputation.
Your position is hard-earned and it is not relinquished easily. When someone is crossing the yard coming for you, you cannot stand idly by.
You have to kill him before he kills you. This is the calculus that every oligarch and every Russian politician goes through every day.
What kept me going were the always interesting insides into the trading world. But then the sh! I cried for minutes while listening to this book and I rarely do so while gaining a deep respect for Bill.
I would recommend it to anyone that wants to understand the world around them a little better. And also to those that are fans of political thrillers because this book is 10 times better than any fiction.
This memoir is a heartstopping international thriller about bravery and naivete, corruption and politics, criminality and justice--written by Bill Browder, head of an investment fund who noted the undervaluation of stocks in the newly privatized Russian market and plunged in.
He and his investors made hundredfold returns on their investments--but Russia was not any country, and the size of the returns had something to do with the way business is done there, which Browder would eventually le Wow.
He and his investors made hundredfold returns on their investments--but Russia was not any country, and the size of the returns had something to do with the way business is done there, which Browder would eventually learn in a huge and painful way.
It begins as an entertaining, well-crafted businessman's memoir--who I was, how I became this wheeling-dealing investor and so on, an unusual story of its own--but the floor drops like the first plunge of a roller coaster.
He knew that Russia was the wild west at that moment in history, but had no idea the level of corruption not only among the oligarchs but within the government as well--something he never accepted until it opened in a very big deep dark and scary hole in front of him.
Browder is best known as the tireless proponent of the Magnitsky Act in the US and now in a number of other countries. Sergei Magnitsky was one of his attorneys in Russia, a sterling guy, who never believed that his own country would not observe its own laws, that the very police and justice system could be so corrupt.
Neither did Browder, until his pattern of prosecuting business corruption--as a foreigner he'd had some luck with it-- started to step on some very ugly toes.
Magnitsky was arrested for investigating allegations of tax fraud against Browder-owned companies--which had themselves been stolen out from under his nose and then leveraged against large tax refunds.
The business shenanigans were unbelievable. But Magnitsky believed that he would not be harmed in pursuing the truth. He ended up under arrest, tortured and killed in a Russian jail.
And Browder begain his campaign against the conspirators in his death. A super-engaging, nailbiting thriller, a picture of Russia and Putin's way of doing business,and a moving personal account all at the same time.
Our Russia problem today can be seen in Browder's difficulty getting the Obama administration to support sanctions at a time when there was hope of normalizing relations with Russia.
The fight for the Magnitsky Act in the US--which prevents corrupt individuals and organizations from laundering their ill-gained money here and the amounts are staggering --is a suspenseful climax to an already amazing story.
Cannot recommend this enough. Bill Browder has made a name for himself for two reasons: he's made lots of money based on the buying and selling of Russian company voucher stock and he was the main force behind the Magnitsky Act.
Some things about Browder - he renounced his US citizenship in because he did not want to pay foreign taxes - he found and made money on undervalued Russian stock - he uncovered serious corruption within the Russian government: corporate owner Bill Browder has made a name for himself for two reasons: he's made lots of money based on the buying and selling of Russian company voucher stock and he was the main force behind the Magnitsky Act.
Some things about Browder - he renounced his US citizenship in because he did not want to pay foreign taxes - he found and made money on undervalued Russian stock - he uncovered serious corruption within the Russian government: corporate ownership papers were stolen and the thieves ended up getting million dollars in refunded taxes these companies had paid - in , his visa to Russia was cancelled; he has not been to Russia since - his attorney, Sergei Magnitzky was imprisoned and tortured for days; he died on Nov 16, of untreated multiple diseases and serious wounds from being beaten that day.
This was an emotional read for me especially because it caused a serious row at our book club. One person was championing Bill Browder while the others thought his primary motivation was selfishness.
The conversation ended up being very confrontational. I personally did not know what to think. It just seemed that most of Browder's story was self-serving and emphasized only good things about himself.
I will leave it up to you to make your own judgments if you know the story or have read the book. The book was not poorly written but I cannot give it more than 2 stars.
Reading a book like this is not why I read. Feb 08, Andrew Robins rated it it was amazing. Bill Browder, relatively early in his career, moves to Russia, to run a hedge fund investing mostly in recently "privatised" in quote marks for a reason, as there isn't much similarity with our western understanding of that process state industries.
I'll be totally honest and say that, initially, I found myself worrying that this book was actually going to be an extended criticism of wrongdoing by those who profited from the truly unforgiveable privatisation process in Russia, by someone who wa Bill Browder, relatively early in his career, moves to Russia, to run a hedge fund investing mostly in recently "privatised" in quote marks for a reason, as there isn't much similarity with our western understanding of that process state industries.
I'll be totally honest and say that, initially, I found myself worrying that this book was actually going to be an extended criticism of wrongdoing by those who profited from the truly unforgiveable privatisation process in Russia, by someone who was actually in Russia to make similar profits from exactly the same process.
This didn't turn out to be the case, though. Browder starts uncovering evidence of enormous legal and financial abuses as grand scale theft goes on at formerly state companies.
Unsuprisingly, he starts to make some very unpleasant enemies, and, after having managed to siphon his fund's money out of Russia unnoticed, he then moves his key Russian staff, also at risk, out of the country, to London.
Sadly, the one person he couldn't persuade to leave is one of his lawyers, Sergei Magnitsky - a man in his late 30s, who Browder points out pretty astutely, is not as old as his colleagues, and therefore doesn't have the same memory of how cruel the state can be in Russia - who believes he has done nothing wrong, and therefore has no need to flee.
Depressingly, he pays the price, and finds himself imprisoned for no good reason, kept in increasingly horrific conditions, and denied medical treatment for some horrible conditions he has picked up whilst in prison.
Refusing to bow to demands to perjure himself, eventually he is beaten to death by police - ironically whilst at a hospital, finally being given treatment he had been denied for a year.
Browder decides to make sure his death is not in vain and ensures that his case is not forgotten, eventually getting a law enacted to stop those convicted of abuses in Russia from travelling to the US.
In the whole story what stood out was the brazenness with which state apparatchiks lined their own pockets, and the blatant, barefaced lying they engaged in to cover their tracks.
It must be a Russian thing - the same way Putin will just deny the clearly visible in the Ukraine, state officials would deny the clear theft and human rights abuses they took part in.
In all this, you have to feel for the Russian people. A horrible history under czarist rule, 70 years of communism and human rights abuse, and now, the descent into a corrupt, sham democracy, ruled by a select few, the same people who stole their economy away from them.
They are the real victims. A terrific read, and very well written. View 1 comment. Nov 03, Pamela rated it it was amazing Shelves: business , nonfiction , politics , top-picks-read-in , europe , culture , own , biography-memoir , russia , crime.
If Bill Browder's expose isn't on your to read list, it should be. Whether or not you're business savvy - or globally astute, a non-fiction enthusiast, culturally aware, or a political aficionado - is rather a moot point; if you believe in impartial justice, integrity, and human rights - for all - this book is a must read.
Reads like a taught, suspense-building thriller, except it's most unfortunately true. I'm still trying to wrap my mind around how such devious, thieving, murdering, sociopath 'leaders' reign terror on such a grand scale????
Not just vendettas against select individuals or groups from other nations or cultures, but against their own hardworking, family-oriented people!
People can be sacrificed for the needs of the state, used as shields, trading chips, or even simple fodder.
If necessary, anyone can disappear. A famous expression of Stalin's [still] drives right to the point: 'If there is no man, there is no problem.

I could not put it down. It is fast paced, riveting, suspenseful, and a powerful indictment of the authoritarian regime that is in power today in Russia.
And it is also an autobiography. Bill Browder writes about his early years as the grandson of the leader of the American Communist Party.
His mother, father, and brother were all driven to excel in their professions and in school. After graduating with an MBA from Stanford, he began working for several different investment companies.
He then founded his own investment company which was astoundingly successful. Returns on his investments were unparalleled. Some of the wealthiest people in the world invested with him.
Acts of theft, corruption, bribery, and murder which are ordered and orchestrated from the top levels of the Russian government, and which continue to be perpetrated to this day, are slowly exposed in this unforgettable and remarkable true story.
A friend recommended this bestselling book to me, and after seeing Mr. Browder on PBS, I was drawn to his story.
This book deserves all the accolades it has received. View all 6 comments. Russian corruption from a financial and personal view There is a great story in here.
Clearly, Mr. Browder has encountered the financial highs and corruption lows of Russia as the country emerged from communism to the capitalist dream of privatization and dropped into the abyss of a totalitarian oligarchy.
As gifted as Mr. Browser is as a humanitarian and financier, it's nearly impossible to write an enjoyable autobiography.
It's too personal and too biased. I kept imagining how Michael Lewis or Russian corruption from a financial and personal view There is a great story in here.
The story itself is very good, the problem here is the telling of that story. From the very little I know of Bill Browder he seems like a good guy, very bright, excellent businessman, principled, brave, loyal, gives very good interviews, but not a talented writer.

If this book had been written by a professional writer uninvolved with the events of the book it would have been solid.
I almost gave up in the very beginning because the writing seemed so amateurish and unintentionally funny. Sweeping generalities are commonplace.
Quoted conversations were painfully stilted. I think every sentence directed to the author had his name in it. Time for the titty-twisters! I decided that while returning to the warm bosom of my mother sounded like the most appealing thing in the world at the moment And can we just refer to proper name of the titty-twister?
Yes, the Bluey Louie. She was sexy Before we said good-bye that night, I grabbed her around the waist and pulled her toward me, and without any resistance, we shared our first real kiss.
Anyone got a cigarette? It starts out as the autobiography of Bill Browder and his creation of a massively successful hedge fund Hermitage Capital Management that was one of the first non-Russian investors in Russia in the mid to late s.
It then shifted into an incredibly complex story of intrigue, corruption, lawlessness, injustice, and murder all at the hands of the Russian political system.
I know that was a mouthful, but if you want a little taste, just read the Wikipedia page for Sergei Magnitsky which is central to the second half of the book, where Browder shifts from successful financier to international human rights activist.
If you want a taste, watch the following interview with Browder. My optimism holds that the good guys eventually come out on top. Apr 25, Ally rated it did not like it Shelves: non-fiction , russia.
Reads more like an episode of House of Cards than a book about finance. I would advise Browder to re-evaluate how he views women, particularly women he interacts with professionally.
All the women in his book are described almost exclusively by how physically attractive they are to him, e.
Personally, the most offensive instance was his description of Chrystia Freeland, then Financial Times reporter, now the current Canadian Minister of Foreign Affairs.
He describe Reads more like an episode of House of Cards than a book about finance. He described Freeland as "an attractive brunette a few years younger than me.
Interestingly, this is the second story I've heard about people taking advantage of the collapse of the Soviet Union for financial gain and getting greedy.
The other being Operational Odessa. Both stories end up in legal problems and tragedy. Jan 30, Barbara rated it it was amazing.
This is a riveting story of greed and corruption in Putin's Russia. Bill Browder's story began in the late 90's when he went to Russia to take advantage of the undervalued stock of companies that had just gone private.
After making millions for his hedge fund company greed here, too , he pulled his money out of Russia. This is when the fallout began.
Browder exposed the criminal activity of Putin and the Russian oligarchs and retaliatory measures were taken.
Lies, torture and the death of an inn This is a riveting story of greed and corruption in Putin's Russia. Lies, torture and the death of an innocent man, perhaps two, resulted.
Browder became an advocate for justice and human rights and was instrumental in the passing of the Magnitsky Act, a law that would put sanctions on countries that violate human rights.
Does justice prevails in Russia? It didn't under Stalin and not much seems to have changed. Putin is a leader to be feared. View all 5 comments. Jul 04, Cher rated it liked it Shelves: bookclub , memoir-bio.
A fascinating story that starts off as a tale of financial corruption and ends with a cry for human rights. You are left questioning the illusion that Russia is becoming a progressive and democratic nation.
Browder's story also shines an unflattering light on a few US politicians here's looking at you, Kerry and overall fueled my dislike for big government.

However, the author failed to engage me and I spent most of the book wishing it was over. The core message: don't do business in Russia and don't oppose the state or it will end badly for you.

I didn't want to do anything else but read it. It is utterly mesmerizing. I loved it, even though I'm not great at understanding financial concepts the stock market is a totally foreign place to me , but Browder does a good job of explaining things in layman's terms.
This reads like the very best thriller stories, but the catch is, it's real. It makes me want to read everything I can get my hands on about Putin and the corruption in his government and Rus Rarely has a book gripped me like this.
It makes me want to read everything I can get my hands on about Putin and the corruption in his government and Russian oligarchs.
While I was reading this, a term from the Mormon lexicon kept coming to mind: "Gadianton robbers," which is what these evil men are.
It makes me so grateful to live in America. And it makes me grateful for very, very brave men like Sergei Magnitsky and Bill Browder. True story of the first investor in grossly undervalued Russian companies, who makes enormous returns for himself and his partners, but antagonized Russian oligarchs without much thought about the risks to himself, his family, his employees and agents.
Then, the unthinkable happens, and Bill Browder has a new mission: justice and retribution. Non-fiction that seems too incredible to be true.

A place where lies reign supreme. A place where two and two is five, white is still black, and up is still down. A place where convictions are certain, and guilt is a given.

A place where an innocent man who was murdered by the state, a man whose only crime was loving his country too much, can be made to suffer from beyond the grave.
This is Russia today. Browder has written a thrilling read, offering audiences a captivating yet horrifying look at the power of the Russian state and the aggression and power of large-scale economic choices.
Because of the Russian intervention in the American election alongside the election intervention in other countries, the current Ukrainian conflict, and the independent investigation by Robert Mueller into the potential Trump campaign's collusion with the Russian government, Red Notice is such an essential read, helping to further understand the complications coming from Vladimir Putin and the Russian state.
Browder begins the book with his persona non grata detention and subsequent expulsion from an incoming flight into Sheremetyevo airport in Moscow in From there we read of his background, schooling, financial career and eventual creation of his hedge fund company Hermitage in Russia.
It's a fascinating tale leading up to the events in surrounding his partnership with tax lawyer Sergei Magnitsky.
Readers concerned about the confusion of financial laws and terms shouldn't worry, as Browder weaves through his narrative with enough political intrigue to keep the page turning.
Browder's crusade is important as the Magnitsky Act passed by the United States government is a phenomenally historical and influential piece of legislation that is driving the current political dialogue between the West and Russia.
The book makes note several times that Mr. Browder has become the number one enemy of Vladimir Putin, and concerning many acts attributed to the Putin government, this may be the among the highest of honors.

Our Russia problem today can be seen in Browder's difficulty getting the Obama administration to support sanctions at a time when there was hope of normalizing relations with Russia.
The fight for the Magnitsky Act in the US--which prevents corrupt individuals and organizations from laundering their ill-gained money here and the amounts are staggering --is a suspenseful climax to an already amazing story.
Cannot recommend this enough. Bill Browder has made a name for himself for two reasons: he's made lots of money based on the buying and selling of Russian company voucher stock and he was the main force behind the Magnitsky Act.
Some things about Browder - he renounced his US citizenship in because he did not want to pay foreign taxes - he found and made money on undervalued Russian stock - he uncovered serious corruption within the Russian government: corporate owner Bill Browder has made a name for himself for two reasons: he's made lots of money based on the buying and selling of Russian company voucher stock and he was the main force behind the Magnitsky Act.
Some things about Browder - he renounced his US citizenship in because he did not want to pay foreign taxes - he found and made money on undervalued Russian stock - he uncovered serious corruption within the Russian government: corporate ownership papers were stolen and the thieves ended up getting million dollars in refunded taxes these companies had paid - in , his visa to Russia was cancelled; he has not been to Russia since - his attorney, Sergei Magnitzky was imprisoned and tortured for days; he died on Nov 16, of untreated multiple diseases and serious wounds from being beaten that day.
This was an emotional read for me especially because it caused a serious row at our book club. One person was championing Bill Browder while the others thought his primary motivation was selfishness.
The conversation ended up being very confrontational. I personally did not know what to think. It just seemed that most of Browder's story was self-serving and emphasized only good things about himself.
I will leave it up to you to make your own judgments if you know the story or have read the book. The book was not poorly written but I cannot give it more than 2 stars.
Reading a book like this is not why I read. Feb 08, Andrew Robins rated it it was amazing.

I'll be totally honest and say that, initially, I found myself worrying that this book was actually going to be an extended criticism of wrongdoing by those who profited from the truly unforgiveable privatisation process in Russia, by someone who wa Bill Browder, relatively early in his career, moves to Russia, to run a hedge fund investing mostly in recently "privatised" in quote marks for a reason, as there isn't much similarity with our western understanding of that process state industries.
I'll be totally honest and say that, initially, I found myself worrying that this book was actually going to be an extended criticism of wrongdoing by those who profited from the truly unforgiveable privatisation process in Russia, by someone who was actually in Russia to make similar profits from exactly the same process.
This didn't turn out to be the case, though. Browder starts uncovering evidence of enormous legal and financial abuses as grand scale theft goes on at formerly state companies.
Unsuprisingly, he starts to make some very unpleasant enemies, and, after having managed to siphon his fund's money out of Russia unnoticed, he then moves his key Russian staff, also at risk, out of the country, to London.
Sadly, the one person he couldn't persuade to leave is one of his lawyers, Sergei Magnitsky - a man in his late 30s, who Browder points out pretty astutely, is not as old as his colleagues, and therefore doesn't have the same memory of how cruel the state can be in Russia - who believes he has done nothing wrong, and therefore has no need to flee.
Depressingly, he pays the price, and finds himself imprisoned for no good reason, kept in increasingly horrific conditions, and denied medical treatment for some horrible conditions he has picked up whilst in prison.
Refusing to bow to demands to perjure himself, eventually he is beaten to death by police - ironically whilst at a hospital, finally being given treatment he had been denied for a year.
Browder decides to make sure his death is not in vain and ensures that his case is not forgotten, eventually getting a law enacted to stop those convicted of abuses in Russia from travelling to the US.
In the whole story what stood out was the brazenness with which state apparatchiks lined their own pockets, and the blatant, barefaced lying they engaged in to cover their tracks.
It must be a Russian thing - the same way Putin will just deny the clearly visible in the Ukraine, state officials would deny the clear theft and human rights abuses they took part in.
In all this, you have to feel for the Russian people. A horrible history under czarist rule, 70 years of communism and human rights abuse, and now, the descent into a corrupt, sham democracy, ruled by a select few, the same people who stole their economy away from them.
They are the real victims. A terrific read, and very well written. View 1 comment. Nov 03, Pamela rated it it was amazing Shelves: business , nonfiction , politics , top-picks-read-in , europe , culture , own , biography-memoir , russia , crime.
If Bill Browder's expose isn't on your to read list, it should be. Whether or not you're business savvy - or globally astute, a non-fiction enthusiast, culturally aware, or a political aficionado - is rather a moot point; if you believe in impartial justice, integrity, and human rights - for all - this book is a must read.
Reads like a taught, suspense-building thriller, except it's most unfortunately true. I'm still trying to wrap my mind around how such devious, thieving, murdering, sociopath 'leaders' reign terror on such a grand scale????
Not just vendettas against select individuals or groups from other nations or cultures, but against their own hardworking, family-oriented people!
People can be sacrificed for the needs of the state, used as shields, trading chips, or even simple fodder. If necessary, anyone can disappear.

I could not put it down. It is fast paced, riveting, suspenseful, and a powerful indictment of the authoritarian regime that is in power today in Russia.
And it is also an autobiography. Bill Browder writes about his early years as the grandson of the leader of the American Communist Party.
His mother, father, and brother were all driven to excel in their professions and in school. After graduating with an MBA from Stanford, he began working for several different investment companies.
He then founded his own investment company which was astoundingly successful. Returns on his investments were unparalleled. Some of the wealthiest people in the world invested with him.
Acts of theft, corruption, bribery, and murder which are ordered and orchestrated from the top levels of the Russian government, and which continue to be perpetrated to this day, are slowly exposed in this unforgettable and remarkable true story.
A friend recommended this bestselling book to me, and after seeing Mr. Browder on PBS, I was drawn to his story. This book deserves all the accolades it has received.

I almost gave up in the very beginning because the writing seemed so amateurish and unintentionally funny. Sweeping generalities are commonplace.
Quoted conversations were painfully stilted. I think every sentence directed to the author had his name in it. Time for the titty-twisters!

Anyone got a cigarette? It starts out as the autobiography of Bill Browder and his creation of a massively successful hedge fund Hermitage Capital Management that was one of the first non-Russian investors in Russia in the mid to late s.
It then shifted into an incredibly complex story of intrigue, corruption, lawlessness, injustice, and murder all at the hands of the Russian political system.
I know that was a mouthful, but if you want a little taste, just read the Wikipedia page for Sergei Magnitsky which is central to the second half of the book, where Browder shifts from successful financier to international human rights activist.
If you want a taste, watch the following interview with Browder. My optimism holds that the good guys eventually come out on top.
Apr 25, Ally rated it did not like it Shelves: non-fiction , russia. Reads more like an episode of House of Cards than a book about finance. I would advise Browder to re-evaluate how he views women, particularly women he interacts with professionally.
All the women in his book are described almost exclusively by how physically attractive they are to him, e. Personally, the most offensive instance was his description of Chrystia Freeland, then Financial Times reporter, now the current Canadian Minister of Foreign Affairs.
He describe Reads more like an episode of House of Cards than a book about finance. He described Freeland as "an attractive brunette a few years younger than me.

Bill Browder's story began in the late 90's when he went to Russia to take advantage of the undervalued stock of companies that had just gone private.

Browder exposed the criminal activity of Putin and the Russian oligarchs and retaliatory measures were taken. Lies, torture and the death of an inn This is a riveting story of greed and corruption in Putin's Russia.

Does justice prevails in Russia? It didn't under Stalin and not much seems to have changed. Putin is a leader to be feared.

I didn't want to do anything else but read it. It is utterly mesmerizing. I loved it, even though I'm not great at understanding financial concepts the stock market is a totally foreign place to me , but Browder does a good job of explaining things in layman's terms.
This reads like the very best thriller stories, but the catch is, it's real. It makes me want to read everything I can get my hands on about Putin and the corruption in his government and Rus Rarely has a book gripped me like this.

Because of the Russian intervention in the American election alongside the election intervention in other countries, the current Ukrainian conflict, and the independent investigation by Robert Mueller into the potential Trump campaign's collusion with the Russian government, Red Notice is such an essential read, helping to further understand the complications coming from Vladimir Putin and the Russian state.
Browder begins the book with his persona non grata detention and subsequent expulsion from an incoming flight into Sheremetyevo airport in Moscow in From there we read of his background, schooling, financial career and eventual creation of his hedge fund company Hermitage in Russia.

Browder's crusade is important as the Magnitsky Act passed by the United States government is a phenomenally historical and influential piece of legislation that is driving the current political dialogue between the West and Russia.
The book makes note several times that Mr. Browder has become the number one enemy of Vladimir Putin, and concerning many acts attributed to the Putin government, this may be the among the highest of honors.
