Leaked documents have revealed how some UK banks have helped criminals, money launderers and Russians under sanctions – and have also failed to stop crime when they suspected it.
The documents – known as the FinCEN files – were leaked to Buzzfeed News and shared with the BBC by the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists.
They show that London is a hub for money laundering – with billions of pounds worth of suspected dirty money moving through the banking system.

As someone who works for a bank I’m not surprised. We have entire teams and departments dedicated to putting up a facade lol
Don’t worry, it’s only our economy that’s based on banking and financial services, this won’t hurt us at all.
Time to slap their wrists and tell them naughty naughty or better yet, bail them out of any fine we give them lmao
They only surprising thing about this is that BuzzFeed were the ones to leek it.
Wouldnt be the first time or the last
