Imagine a global food company.
Milk cartons on breakfast tables worldwide. Sponsorships in Formula One and top-flight football. Billions reported in cash reserves.

Nic and Damian to a look at how a family grocery business grew aggressively into an international business, with complex financing. On the face of it successful, but beneath the surface a fraud.
What were the missed signals? What can be learned? And of course, could it happen again?
Well... spoiler alert, it already did. Heard of a company called Wirecard...?
