Biography

William Felix Browder is a renowned American-born British financier and political activist, whose professional journey has been marked by a strong commitment to shareholder rights activism.

As the CEO and co-founder of Hermitage Capital Management, Browder led the investment advisor to the Hermitage Fund, which, at its peak, held the distinction of being the largest foreign portfolio investor in Russia.

Browder's investment strategy focused primarily on shareholder rights activism, a bold approach that took on some of Russia's largest and most influential companies, including Gazprom, Surgutneftegaz, Unified Energy Systems, and Sidanco.

However, Browder's unwavering commitment to his principles ultimately led to a dramatic turn of events. On November 13, 2005, he was refused entry to Russia, deported to the UK, and declared a threat to Russian national security.

This unprecedented move marked a significant escalation in the tensions between Browder and the Russian government, which would have far-reaching consequences for his personal and professional life.
