Eamon Javers: 本播客系列揭露了一起由年轻的俄罗斯寡头Vladislav Klyushin主导的9300万美元内幕交易案。Klyushin及其公司M13利用网络战技术窃取美国上市公司（如特斯拉、Snapchat和Roku）的财务信息，并在市场公开前进行交易，从而获利。此行为严重损害了美国资本市场的完整性，对美国经济和普通投资者的退休账户和投资都造成了影响。调查人员追踪了Klyushin的资金流向，并发现其通过各种手段洗钱。此案还涉及到一位俄罗斯间谍，为调查提供了俄罗斯方面的视角。 Stephen Frank: Klyushin虽然已经非常富有，但他仍然贪婪地利用内幕交易谋取更多利益。这与美国常见的金融犯罪类似，犯罪动机是贪婪。Klyushin与黑客Ivan Ermikov关系密切，两人关系如同兄弟般亲密，共同享受犯罪所得带来的奢华生活。 Seth Costow: Klyushin和Ermikov之间的合作关系非常紧密，两人在2018年前几乎没有联系，但在行动开始后却保持着近乎持续的联系，一起喝酒、桑拿，并参加各种高档聚会。这显示了他们之间非同一般的合作关系，以及对犯罪所得的挥霍。 Eamon Javers: 调查人员发现，Klyushin利用其在俄罗斯情报和国防领域的广泛人脉，为其非法活动提供了便利。他获得了俄罗斯政府的荣誉勋章和FSB的奖励，这表明他与俄罗斯情报部门存在密切联系。

Shownotes Transcript

Hosted by CNBC Senior Washington Correspondent Eamon Javers, “The Crimes of Putin’s Trader” is the secret story of a young Russian oligarch who hacked his way to an illicit $93 million fortune...and the FBI team who finally brought him to justice. For generations, insider trading on Wall Street has been a crime of the American rich: the stereotype of corporate executives passing stock tips at country clubs was not far off. But new cyberwarfare techniques, and an aggressive anti-Western Putin regime in Moscow have turned this kind of insider corruption into an attack from the outside on the American economy itself, with profound implications for all of us who have retirement accounts, investments, or work in corporate America.
