Deutsche Bank Faces Criminal Investigation for Potential Money-Laundering Lapses

Deutsche bank employs tens of thousands of people, shutting them down would cause a lot of grief and miscarried justice.

The execs are the ones who should be tried and jailed.

> Ms. McFadden, a former anti-money-laundering compliance officer at the bank, told The New York Times last month that she had flagged transactions involving Mr. Kushner’s family company in 2016, but that bank managers decided not to file the suspicious activity report she prepared. Some of her colleagues had similar experiences in 2017 involving transactions in the accounts of Mr. Trump’s legal entities, although it was not clear whether the F.B.I. was examining the bank’s handling of those transactions.

Perhaps we could start by jailing those directly involved in the money laundering? I find it hard to put too much blame on those trying to provide customer service to the President's family.

Yeah, "Potential Money-Laundering Lapses" is a interesting phrase to use to describe a systemic and long running criminal conspiracy. Sounds like we're most of the way there to the "Nothing will happen" part.

The amount of prosecutions on white collar crimes has dropped dramatically in the last 20 years. The companies are now too big to fail.

It's impolitic to call it a "crime" when you see who's alleged to have been doing it...

"Lapses" seem ok to me if some upper management are also fortunate enough to gain involuntary entitlement to free food and lodgings.

I think it's relevant.

Seems pertinent to discussions of Facebook's new cryptocurrency pseudo-bank no?
