乔治・索罗斯也许是有史以来知名度最高和最具传奇色彩的金融大师。1993年，他利用欧洲各国在统一汇率机制问题上步调不一致的失误，发动了抛售英镑的投机风潮，迫使具有300年历史的英格兰银行（英国中央银行）认亏出场。1997年2月，他旗下的投资基金在国际货币市场上大量抛售泰铢，这一行动被视为是牵连极广、至今尚未平息的东南亚金融危机的开端。当然，索罗斯也并非无往而不胜。在1987年美国股灾中，索罗斯亏损4～6亿美元，而他在1998年俄罗斯金融危机中的亏损更高达30亿美元之巨。尽管如此，他所经营的量子基金并未因损失惨重而清盘，索罗斯也一如既往地在纽约中央公园旁的办公室里评判市场，不断发表令市场为之震颤的独家观点。
