In a video interview with Bloomberg on the sidelines of the World Economic Forum in Davos, Russia's one-time biggest investor, William Browder, discusses his experiences with corruption in the country.

Browder's group, Hermitage Capital Management, discusses the death of his former lawyer Sergei Magnitsky in pre-trial detention, and notes that Russia is the most corrupt country he has seen. After broadening his investment portfolio to 27 other markets after being barred from Russia in 2005 for speaking out against corruption in the country, Browder believes nothing compares to the corruption he witnessed in Russia.
