El último truco del mago de las finanzas Juan González
El fundador de Herrero Brigantina promete a sus clientes multiplicar por tres sus fondos mientras está siendo investigado en la Audiencia Nacional por una estafa de 200 millones
Economist Juan González Herrero claims to possess an infallible formula for success. For every euro deposited into his corporate bonds, investors receive three within 15 days. This represents a modern-day version of the biblical miracle of the loaves and fishes, as he has been selling these financial products since 2025 through a legal entity based in Ponferrada, León.
The success story leaves out a crucial detail: the entrepreneur has been under investigation since July 2024 by the judge at the Audiencia Nacional, Santiago Pedraz, for a suspected pyramid scheme worth €200 million, which was exposed by EL PAÍS over a year ago. This deception originated from the Leonese financial conglomerate Herrero Brigantina, which seduced 35,000 clients - SMEs, self-employed individuals, and families - in Europe with their investment solutions, pension plans, insurance, and mortgages.
