Feb. 6 (UPI) -- The World Economic Forum announced it's investigating CEO Børge Brende for his friendship with the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
Last week's documents dump from the U.S. Department of Justice included some that showed Brende had attended at least three "business dinners" with Epstein and traded text messages and emails with him.
Brende will keep his titles as president and CEO of the organization based in Davos, Switzerland, during the investigation, the Forum said.
"This decision underscores the Forum's commitment to transparency and maintaining its integrity," it said in a statement. It added that Brende "fully supports, and cooperates with, this review, having indeed requested it himself."
