David Webb has spent decades campaigning for the rights of ordinary investors in Hong Kong.
Since arriving in the city from the UK as a young investment banker 30 years ago, he’s taken on tycoons, exposed corporate wrongdoing, and pushed for transparency in one of the world’s most complex financial hubs.
Now, as the activist investor’s life comes to an end following a terminal cancer diagnosis in 2020, he's been reflecting on his life in the corporate world.
He's spoken to the BBC's Martin Yip.
