Archipel secures as USD 330 million settlement for 1MDB

Geneva
27 August 2025
Are we proud to have secured a USD 330 million settlement for our client 1MDB? Of course we are—how could we not be?
As reported in international media (see link to Reuters article below), JP Morgan Chase has agreed to pay USD 330 million to 1MDB, resolving existing and future proceedings, including the Swiss proceedings we had initiated on behalf of our client.

Results like these aren't crafted by individual hands—they're forged through orchestrated international collaboration.

Why this matters beyond the numbers:
✓ Multi-jurisdictional coordination across continents
✓ Strategic alliance with leading specialists worldwide
✓ Seamless integration of legal and recovery expertise

Our team—Guillaume Tattevin, Lezgin Polater, and Joanna Didisheim—had the privilege of working alongside exceptional partners: Lim Chee Wee Partnership (LCWP) (Dato' Lim Chee Wee, Raphael Ren, Pang Huey Lynn), Kroll (Angela Barkhouse, Toni Shukla, Richard Templeman), Oon & Bazul LLP, Baker & Partners, and other world-class specialist firms, as well as government agencies, all working towards recovering sums for 1MDB and the Malaysian people.

When specialised knowledge converges across borders, results follow.
