About Bill Browder
Bill Browder is a distinguished financier and notorious human rights activist known worldwide for his influential work in the realm of Global Finance. Born on April 23, 1964, in Princeton, New Jersey, Browder is perhaps best known as the CEO and co-founder of Hermitage Capital Management, a leading investment advisory firm specializing in the Russian market. Constantly at the intersection of finance and political activism, his life journey not only demonstrates resilience and perseverance but also his relentless commitment to justice.
In his early professional life, Browder worked at reputable financial institutions, such as Boston Consulting Group and Salomon Brothers. However, it was during the post-Soviet Union privatization period that his finance prowess truly flourished, leading Hermitage to become one of the largest foreign investors in Russia. His financial aptitude, blended with a deep understanding of international economies and their interplay, solidified his reputation as a formidable financier.
Yet, Browder’s life took a significant turn following a fall out with Russian authorities, leading to his expulsion from the country. His crusade for justice after the tragic death of his attorney, Sergei Magnitsky, is highly regarded globally. He spearheaded the Magnitsky Act, imposing sanctions on human rights violators in Russia, that was enacted by the U.S Congress. Browder has dedicated his life to human rights advocacy with the same passion he formerly directed toward the finance industry, transforming personal adversity into a global fight for justice. His memoir, “Red Notice: A True Story of High Finance, Murder, and One Man’s Fight for Justice,” encapsulates this journey perfectly and remains a worldwide best-seller. His resilience, passion, and dedication make him an influential voice in both finance and human rights advocacy.
