Courage & Decency: The Story Behind a Story

The collapse of Wirecard, among allegations of widespread fraud, has become one of the biggest scandals of the international financial world.

In this DLD Summer session, Wirecard’s former senior legal counsel for Asia Pacific, Pav Gill, explains what it was like to work for the company, what made him suspicious about Wirecard’s practices and why he decided to become a whistleblower – despite threats from management, he says.

Pav Gill’s story is also the basis of a documentary by filmmaker Gabriela Sperl who starts off the session remembering how she met former Wirecard CEO Markus Braun at a DLD Munich conference.
