Notable Quotes 3
Are we doing business with Epstein?
He is a private banking client . . . And ISG and KCP report to the same person. Who is now copied on this email because this is getting silly.
I've attached a list of preferred equities that was asked for by Richard Kahn; the CFO for Southern Financial, which is an investment entity for the personal wealth of Jeffrey Epstein (one of Stew Oldfield's clients).
Red Flags 2
