The board of Australia’s biggest listed technology company, WiseTech Global, has been forced to re-examine serious allegations against the firm’s founder and chief executive Richard White by a sexual partner that resulted in the businessman paying her millions of dollars to settle the matter.
The Australian Financial Review, The Sydney Morning Herald and The Age can reveal a woman who had a sexual relationship with Mr White made a series of damaging claims about the billionaire in late 2020 that included allegations he engaged in inappropriate behaviour.
