Built on a Lie

The Rise and Fall of Neil Woodford and the Fate of Middle England’s Money

Owen Walker

Business & Economics / Business Ethics

He was the most celebrated and successful British investor of his generation - but it was all built on a lie.

Neil Woodford spent years beating the market; betting against the dot com bubble and the banks before the financial crash in 2008, making blockbuster returns for investors and earning himself a reputation of 'the man who made Middle England rich'.

But, in 2019, Woodford's asset management company collapsed, trapping hundreds of thousands of rainy-day savers in his flagship fund and hanging £3.6 billion in the balance.

In Built on a Lie, Financial Times reporter Owen Walker reveals the disastrous failings of Woodford, the greed at the heart of his operation and the full, jaw-dropping story of Europe's biggest investment scandal in a decade.
