The Schwabs deny all these allegations. A spokesman for the family said that Klaus Schwab intends to sue whoever is behind the anonymous letter. The spokesman also said that when Schwab charged massages to the forum, he always paid them back. As far as the Villa Mundi property, he said the Schwabs live nearby and have only used the estate for forum-related events.
The whistleblower letter ignited a new crisis at the forum, one that's pitting Klaus Schwab against many members of the organization's board.
At an emergency board meeting on Easter Sunday, the board decided to open an investigation into Schwab. Schwab then resigned. The board has appointed a former Nestle CEO as the forum's interim leader. What could all of this mean for the World Economic Forum long term? Like, will people still go to Davos?
And this is all happening at a time when there's been a lot of criticism of events like Davos. Like they've kind of been slammed as these meetings of out-of-touch elites.

I have a question. Who's ready?
Who's ready? Last night, Mark Carney celebrated his victory in Canada's election at a hockey arena in Ottawa.
Who's ready to stand up for Canada with me?
Carney, who had already been leading the Liberal Party, will continue to serve as prime minister. But a surprising portion of his acceptance speech wasn't focused on Canada.
America wants our land, our resources, our water, our country.
And what was Carney's speech like?
Our colleague Vipal Manga was there.
We are over the shock of the American betrayal, but we should never forget the lessons.
What could this moment and Carney's election mean for U.S.-Canada relations?
Welcome to The Journal, our show about money, business, and power. I'm Annie Minoff. It's Tuesday, April 29th. Coming up on the show, how Canada's Prime Minister won by standing up to President Trump. Historically, the relationship between Canada and the U.S. has been pretty cozy.
The two countries' economic ties also run deep. Eighty percent of Canada's exports go to the U.S.,
That's how it used to be. But recently, the US-Canada relationship has taken a big hit. Soon after coming into office, President Trump started imposing tariffs on America's trading partners, including Canada.
But it wasn't just economic. Trump also threatened Canada in a way that was much more existential.
And so how have Canadians been feeling about their southern neighbor, the U.S.?
Some Canadians have started wearing blue Canada is not for sale hats. Others are boycotting American whiskey. And instead of selling Americanos, some coffee shops are selling Canadianos. That was the backdrop to Canada's election. And as a candidate, Mark Carney was able to tap into Canadians' anger.
