Financial Times investigative journalist, Dan McCrum, joins The Long-Short to explore the striking parallels between the HBO/BBC drama Industry and the real-world collapse of Wirecard. Drawing on his experience exposing one of Europe’s biggest corporate frauds, Wirecard, Dan explains how accurately the series captures the mechanics of accounting scandals, the controversial but often misunderstood role of short sellers, and the high-stakes reality of investigative reporting.
