This contradicts claims that Bolt's investments never reached the firm.
Gordon further stated that there is an "organized effort to shift blame onto The Honorable Usain Bolt for his loss-when he is guilty of nothing more than investing in the country that he loves." He stressed that the issue was not negligence on Bolt's part but a failure of the system meant to safeguard investors.
