Rogue Trader
1999
Based on the true story of Nick Leeson, the derivatives trader whose unauthorised speculative positions caused the catastrophic collapse of Barings Bank in 1995, this drama follows his rise, unravelling, and eventual arrest in Singapore. Ewan McGregor plays Leeson in this cautionary tale of financial hubris.
