Witnessed my father Bill Browder receive his knighthood from Princess Anne at Buckingham Palace yesterday. The Royal Family work on Thanksgiving and I am so proud and thankful.
Unreal. Congrats!
Proud all around my friend. Brings back memories of when I first met him when he launched the fund in the 90s with Mr. Safra’s backing and distribution network.
I have a massive amount of respect for your Dad and he deserves every honor for his life’s work..
The uniforms and pageantry here are just 10/10 thank you for sharing. Props to your dad and also - what? How are we hovering swords over people's heads in 2024 to give them special powers? Humans are very funny creatures.
Very well deserved for his hard work and courage.
Wow … that is such a cool honor … ahem … honour. You are deservingly a proud son.
Bravo to your Dad Joshua Browder!
What a legacy for you to be carrying on Joshua!
V cool. Super relevant considering the times we are living in. Congratulations!

1dA financier with a dubious past receiving a knighthood! A man who bought Gazprom shares in Russia and did it through shell companies that hid his ownership? That's the stuff of knighthood nowadays? Very interesting. I quote from his wikipedia page: "Browder admitted having sought influence in Gazprom, but denied any wrongdoing.[41] He said that purchasing Gazprom shares was an investment in the Russian economy, and the desire to influence the Gazprom management was driven by the need to expose a "huge fraud going on at the company". However, at the time it was illegal for foreigners to buy Gazprom shares in Russia, and he did it through shell companies that hid his ownership. He also said that the scheme of using Russian-registered subsidiaries entitled to tax advantages was practised by other foreign investors at the time and was not illegal.[42]" Indeed, the mighty feats of a hero. https://www.linkedin.com/posts/joshua-browder-b0b573116_witnessed-my-father-bill-browder-receive-activity-7268437080848916480-fK0O?utm_source=share&utm_medium=member_desktop
