Business feuds were regularly settled by bullets, and the life expectancy of bankers was radically shortened. When Putin came to power on New Year’s Eve 1999, promising to stamp out corruption, Browder was a relieved man. You can see this would cause someone with a trillion... a trillion!...stolen dollars some little anxiety. It's led to many murders and attempted murders.
