Emphasis mine. Note, this could be a random lunatic phoning this in to the FBI informant line, but the report was initially classified until 2043.

(S//NF) Jeffrey Epstein ("Epstein") had a compound in New Mexico where he lured and video recorded underage women. He also had a private island. Epstein was President Vladimir Putin's wealth manager and provided the same service for Zimbabwean President Robert Mugabe. Epstein had some connection to [REDACTED] from MIT Media Lab but CHS was unsure of the details. Epstein had dirt on other people. The logs from his ig is were made public at some point. Epstein had a mansion on the Upper West Side**. Epstein made his money from charging his clients fees to hide their money offshore.** Epstein knew former President Bill Clinton, and was very close to current President Donald Trump. In the spring of 2015, President Trump had just been to Epstein's property for lunch.

If, then certainly in the US, not globally?

What does wealth manager even mean? Actually handling (some of) Putin's assets in the US? That would be big. I don't think Epstein was that sort of financier.

managing money (specifically, finding/creating loopholes to preserve wealth) was his entire business, the sex trafficking underage girls to rape with his buddies for blackmail was basically the side-gig used to reel in and maintain clients
