1Malaysia Development Bhd (1MDB) said today it had never invested in nor transferred funds to Red Granite Pictures , whether directly or via intermediaries.

Any statement to the contrary is false, it said.

"We, therefore, deny any suggestion that 1MDB funded the production of 'The Wolf of Wall Street', or had any involvement with the film in any capacity, as has been alleged or implied in some recent media reports," it added in a statement today.
