Episode 5: A Different Set of Rules | FT Podcasts How does one become a spy? Sam speaks with a former Russian intelligence officer about how Marsalek might have been recruited. And to what ends. #wirecard #bribe #investigation #espionage #janmarsalek #undercover #austria #vienna #fintech #russianspy #warlord #disinformation #europe #us #investigativejournalism Hot Money, the award-winning podcast series from the Financial Times and Pushkin Industries, is back with a third season. In 2020, the Financial Times exposed a €2bn fraud at Wirecard, a high-flying German fintech. Many thought that was the end of the story. But for FT reporter Sam Jones, it was just the beginning. This season on Hot Money: Agent of Chaos, Sam investigates Wirecard’s chief operating officer who vanished just as Wirecard collapsed — and who turned out to also be a Russian spy. From an Ibizan sting operation to an attempted takeover of the Austrian intelligence service, his reporting spirals into a world of warlords, espionage and disinformation. All in an attempt to answer two questions: who is the real Jan Marsalek? And what does his secret life reveal about the powerful forces he serves? New episodes of the eight-part season will drop every Tuesday. ► Enjoying FT content? Get a daily slice of the very best FT journalism with FT Edit.
