More than $100million of the production budget for the hit film The Wolf of Wall Street came from a Malaysian state fund meant to spur local economic development, FBI sources said.

The state fund was set up set up seven years ago by the prime minister of Malaysia, Najib Razak. Razak’s stepson, Riza Aziz, is the chairman of Red Granite Pictures, which was set up in 2010.
The investigation into 1MDB led to Goldman Sachs, which helped raise $6.5billion for the fund and now faces a congressional hearing into its Malaysian dealings, according to the New York Post.
The Singapore-based chairman of Goldman’s Southeast Asia operations, Tim Leissner, took a leave of absence last month.
