datribune: This is the article below what you stated above is not there please can you confirm There's no mention of Abacha or 50 Nigerians Reuters) - South Africa's central bank on Friday fined HSBC's (HSBA.L) local business 15 million rand (844,927 pounds) for weaknesses in its processes meant to detect money laundering and terrorism financing, and ordered the bank to fix the problems. The Prudential Authority (PA), which sits within the South African Reserve Bank (SARB) and monitors the country's lenders, said HSBC's South African branch had already taken the measures required to address the issues. "Certain weaknesses were identified in HSBC's processes which inhibited HSBC from proactively detecting potential money laundering and the financing of terrorism," the PA said in a statement. It added HSBC was not found to have facilitated any transactions involving money laundering or the financing of terrorism. In a statement, the bank said it accepted the sanctions applied by the PA, which followed an inspection in 2016. "We can confirm that the issues identified by SARB during the 2016 inspection have been fully remediated," the statement said. While small, the South African fine highlights that HSBC still faces problems with compliance long after pledging to toughen up its controls and after paying billions of dollars in fines for such failures. It drew a line under one of its most serious cases - failing to prevent Mexican drug cartels from laundering hundreds of millions of dollars - last year, when the U.S. Department of Justice said it would end its deferred prosecution agreement over the matter, lifting the threat of further penalties. |

datribune: I am not defending them, it's not as if they have not been involved in shady activity or another, but here in Nigeria I say none to the best of knowledge and you have not been able to confirm that too. Secondly linking their exit to the fake fight against corruption is the reason I tell no that's not true, you and I know there is no fight against corruption if you tell there's I don't think there's any more basis for to continue this conversation. Because sympathizers of the present administration don't see that way, so I would not want to go into any discussion with APC supporters |

gare: Which kain reasoning be this nah?. I'm reeling out d track record of HSBC to show u that worldwide they have a history of laundering dirty money & u ar arguing that it doesn't come frm a particular article. Always try to read wide & get perspectives on issues. Even with account numbers provided, u are still disputing & defending a bank that has been severally indicted worldwide for money laundering. If names of affected persons were mentioned what difference will it make to someone like you, who still disputes & defends a bank wit an ignominious record, even when specific account numbers where monies were lodged in d bank were provided. Smh Abeg, tell me what's d sense in me wasting time arguing wit u. 1 Like |
