This is one nugget in a big story on Epstein and the mirage of his wealth. He doesn’t appear to have been a billionaire. with @JamesStewartNYT @MattGoldstein26 @katekelly
The Epstein relationship was managed by Deutsche’s private bank — the same division that lent to @realDonaldTrump. Deutsche compliance officers raised concerns about transactions Epstein’s company was doing, three sources told me. Bank managers overruled employees.
