Back in September 2008, I wrote here about the latest twist in the saga of Jérôme Kerviel — a comic book (see below) created to recount the incredible story of the then-31-year old junior trader who nearly brought down French bank, Société Générale, with his rogue trading. You may recall that Kerviel was charged with and found guilty of “betting 50 billion euros of the French bank’s money without its knowledge, leading to losses of nearly 5 billion euros” (worth roughly $7.2 billion at the time of the trading in 2008).
