Libya attempts “largest international asset recovery effort of all time”

As part of what its lawyers claim “could become the largest international asset recovery effort of all time”, Libya has applied to take discovery from eight major banks in its hunt for an estimated $100 billion allegedly misappropriated by former leader Muammar Gaddafi. The effort is being led by lawyers Oren Warshavsky, of BakerHostetler, and Warren Gluck, of Holland & Knight.
