E127: How oligarchs embedded themselves across Scandinavia

Think about the road you took to work, the flight you booked for your next holiday, or even the property you’re looking to buy. What if they were all made possible by shadowy deals between powerful corporations and oligarchs?


But surely this couldn't be happening in Scandinavia, where trust and transparency are so important…could it?


Our expert hosts, Fredrik Riiser and Robin Lycka, team up to reveal: how oligarchs embedded themselves across Scandinavia


The pair discuss: the businesses with hidden ownership secrets, how it happens, and what can be done about it.
