Investigative Report Links Jared Kushner to Secret Overseas Accounts; Trump Envoy Denounces Claims as ‘Categorically False’
Former senior White House adviser Jared Kushner is facing intense scrutiny following the publication of an excerpt from an upcoming investigative book alleging that Gulf monarchs deposited roughly $2 billion across undisclosed foreign accounts accessible to him during his tenure in the federal government.
The claims, reported in an excerpt featured by Ground News and published by investigative journalist Matthew Cole in his forthcoming book Princes and Thieves, center on purported financial back-channels established with senior officials from the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia.
According to Cole’s reporting, intelligence services allegedly tracked Kushner accessing an account at First Abu Dhabi Bank in the UAE. The book outlines two discrete funds—internally dubbed “Alpha” and “Beta”. While one structure was allegedly designed to advance regional geopolitical maneuvers outside standard diplomatic apparatuses, a separate account was allegedly established for Kushner’s direct benefit, with hundreds of millions routed through an intermediary financial institution in Azerbaijan. The report further claims that Dutch intelligence intercepted evidence of the accounts after Russian cyber-intelligence operatives initially breached Kushner’s personal phone.
Kushner swiftly issued an unequivocal denial, condemning the allegations as manufactured fiction.
“The allegations made by this author are completely insane, categorically false, and never happened,” Kushner stated, noting that the author presented no verifiable banking records, transaction dates, or wire confirmations. “These are outrageous fabrications being presented as investigative journalism. It is a mixture of fantasy, fiction, and advocacy.”
Legal representatives for Kushner stated that all overseas interactions during his White House tenure complied strictly with ethics rules and federal disclosure statutes.
The allegations surface as Kushner continues to carry out high-profile diplomatic assignments across the Middle East and Eastern Europe, prompting renewed calls from government ethics watchdogs and lawmakers for enhanced oversight regarding foreign financial transparency.
