Coming up this week, let’s go back in time and explore how the Antwerp Diamond Heist was executed. On February 15 2003, a group of five Italian thieves calling themselves ‘The School of Turin’ breached one of the most secure locations in the world – the Antwerp Diamond Center – and stole in excess of $100 million dollars worth of diamonds, gold, silver and other rare gems and jewelry. The largest diamond heist in recorded history. One of the largest robberies ever in recorded history.

And while The School of Turin were caught. Well, bar one member, whose identity remains unknown to this day. While four of the five members were eventually caught, the planning and execution of the Antwerp Diamond Heist is the personification of ISO31000 in real time. The members of the School of Turin, risk masters.

In this week’s episode of The Risktory Podcast, the cracking tale of the Antwerp Diamond Heist.
