Orgies, violence against women and more: World elite may have spent nearly ₹10 crore on escorts during WEF in Davos
World Economic Forum: This year, the global elite have not only flocked to Davos for the meeting but have also been accompanied by inappropriate guests - escorts. Their demand has increased more than ever among those attending the event.
World Economic Forum, typically storied for economic development, politics, and social issues - this year has earned an infamous reputation for the ‘vices’ of the global leaders.
This year not just the global elite have flocked to Davos for the meeting, they were also accompanied by inappropriate guests - escorts. Their demand has increased more than ever among those attending the event, according to a Daily Mail report.
Reportedly, about 3,000 attendees from across 130 countries are in Davos for the WEF. Escort agencies saw heightened demand during the event with prostitutes being made to sign non-disclosure agreements. Some women reportedly make around ₹6.5 lakh per booking — with some guests even paying for several hours of ‘company’.
'300 Escorts for Just 90 Customers'
Titt4tat spokesperson Andreas Berger told MailOnline that there had been “significantly more sex parties” this year — with 300 escorts booked from its platform by just around 90 customers.
With an average booking duration of four hours this would amount to CHF 300,000 (around ₹2.9 crore) during the first three days of WEF. The spokesperson said that the WEF guests were likely to have spent around 1 million CHF (nearly ₹10 lakh) when one took other providers and agencies into consideration.
Meanwhile the Berlin-based Hetaera agency charged clients £5,000 for a weekend while a two-hour tête-à-tête starts at about £850.

Prostitution is legal
Prostitution is legal in Switzerland and many of the global elite reportedly enjoyed orgies during their time in Davos by booking multiple women at once. The models are typically bilingual and English, German and French remain the most in-demand languages.
“Anal sex is actually one of the most frequently requested things. These types of people consider themselves untouchable, which they often realistically are. I think physical attacks on escort ladies, for example to live out a certain BDSM fetish, are absolutely conceivable,” Susann from the Swiss Escort Avantgarde agency told the publication.
Escort and author Salome Balthus however indicated that the demand for such services was particularly prevalent among certain sections of the Davos attendees.
"It's not the super powerful that do something like this [hiring an escort] - they are happy when they get a bit of time for their families - no, it's the more the subaltern workers who are excited, maybe even there for the first time," she told Daily Mail.
