BNP Paribas faces fine of more than $10bn in US sanctions investigation
US justice department pushing France's biggest bank to plead guilty to charges it violated US sanctions against Iran. France's biggest bank, is reported to be facing a fine of more than $10bn (£6bn) to settle allegations that it violated US sanctions against Iran and other countries. The US justice department is pushing the bank to plead guilty to the charges and pay one of the biggest penalties ever imposed on a bank, according to the Wall Street Journal. A deal between the bank and the authorities is still weeks away and the final penalty could yet come in lower than $10bn. The Journal said BNP was seeking to pay less than $8bn, though a person familiar with the bank said its negotiators had not proposed that figure to the justice department.
The US...
We need an urgent ROYAL COMMISSION INTO BANKING. BFCSA Member files have over-represented presence of RAMS dirty loans - dating back to RHG and more recent WESTPAC. The evidence is there. We have presented compelling EVIDENCE to Parliament twice...hand delivered to ASIC......hand delivered proof to FOS.....hand delivered proof to Senators. WE have posted dodgy loan apps on our website, also service calculators and over 200 emails between banks and brokers. LENDERS HAVE BEEN rubber stamping APPROVALS for over 15 years whilst ASIC SNOOZED. Fraudulent incomes, forged paperwork, over the top Loan to Value Ratio's - ie dodgy valuations - akin to American Sub Prime. Our sub prime crisis indeed. Why has our sub prime crisis taken so long to crack and unravel the truth? Just ask the MFAA....they protect their members who are predominantly LENDERS (in terms of heavyweight and long lunches). Why any broker would belong to the Lender interested...
FAIRNESS IN LENDING as a revered regulation and policy of Government that could have stopped the greed of Major Banks, had it been properly applied.
Government could have stopped the fraudulent Loan Application Scams that has been taking place inside the Banking Machine of Australia.
TO FOS, COSL, APRA and ASIC - why did you not think of this?
To adhere to regulations relating to FAIRNESS in FINANCIAL PRODUCTS AND SERVICES:
1. It is most unfair to have a banker seconded TO FOS from a Major Lender to adjudicate and view a client file who is a complainant of any of the Lenders..........................and please tell us who dreamed that one up??????
2. The statue of limitations is six years from when the awareness is evident, so please cease using that as an excuse to close files and treat consumers of banking products with contempt.
3. The statue of limitations is UNLIMITED in cases...
