A high-flying investment banker who was fired in one of Wall Street’s first major #MeToo cases claims his former firm still owes him a $6.5m bonus and alleges the company contacted his late wife’s siblings and told them he had cheated on their sister while she was dying of cancer.

Jess Ravich, a former managing director at global asset management firm TCW, which has some $200bn under management, was fired in 2019 over a string of sexual harassment accusations.
