[edit] Biography
White is a middleman of a terrorist organisation (the unnamed organisation plays the same role fulfilled by SMERSH in the novel).
Mr. White is first seen as an intermediary between his mysterious employer and LRA commander Steven Obanno. White introduces Obanno to Le Chiffre, and arranges for Le Chiffre to bank $101,260,000 for Obanno. Le Chiffre loses this money, due to Bond's intervention, and plans to cover the loss by winning up to $150,000,000 at the Casino Royale tournament before Obanno discovers he has misappropriated the funds. After the tournament, and plans to kill Le Chiffre for betraying his organisation's trust. White inadvertently rescues Bond from his cruel torture by shooting Le Chiffre in the forehead with a silenced Walther PPK.
In the final scene of Casino Royale, Bond confronts Mr. White at his villa along Lake Como and shoots him in the knee with a silenced UMP-9. White's ultimate fate remains to be seen.
[edit] Trivia
In keeping with Bond's assertion that a Windsor necktie knot is the "mark of a cad"[1][2][3], Mr. White sports a Windsor knot. Possibly, based on Willard Whyte from Diamonds Are Forever.
