SoftBank reportedly plans to lend employees as much as $20 billion to invest in its VC fund

SoftBank has a plan to loan up to $20 billion to its employees, including CEO Masayoshi Son, for the purposes of having that capital re-invested in SoftBank's own Vision venture fund, according to a new report from the Wall Street Journal. SoftBank revealed its plans for its second Vision Fund last month, including $38 billion from SoftBank itself, as well as commitments from Apple, Microsoft and more.
