This is the Biggest News story - Tards
HSBC: the Worldwide Local Bank . . . for Money Laundering and Rogue Nations.

HSBC also understood the subtleties of – and were, apparently, fully invested in – money laundering for drug kingpins and terror cells, while ignoring U.S. sanctions established against rogue nations. HSBC’s US unit managed to position the brand in this way by accepting $7 billion of dollars from Mexican drug cartels, conducting 25,000 Iranian transactions totaling over $19 billion in just one week, and helping Saudi banks with terror financing for groups like al-Qaeda.

Well, HSBC apologized for the incident, their group chief saying, “we accept responsibility for our past mistakes. . . are profoundly sorry for them.”

Oh, the banks signed a Deferred Prosecution Agreement for breaches of the Trading With the Enemy Act and the U.S. Bank Secrecy Act, so now they’re on probation.

Here's what they got:

Over the five-year term of the agreement with the Department of Justice, an independent monitor will evaluate HSBC's progress in fully implementing these and other measures it recommends, and will produce regular assessments of the effectiveness of HSBC's compliance function.

The Real
Owners Of America
George Carlin Quote


"The real owners are the big wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions. Forget the politicians, they're an irrelevancy. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't. You have no choice. You have owners. They own you. They own everything. They own all the important land. They own and control the corporations. They've long since bought and paid for the Senate, the Congress, the statehouses, the city halls. They've got the judges in their back pockets. And they own all the big media companies, so that they control just about all of the news and information you hear. They've got you by the balls. They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying ­ lobbying to get what they want. Well, we know what they want; they want more for themselves and less for everybody else."

"But I'll tell you what they don't want. They don't want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don't want well-informed, well-educated people capable of critical thinking. They're not interested in that. That doesn't help them. That's against their interests. They don't want people who are smart enough to sit around the kitchen table and figure out how badly they're getting fucked by a system that threw them overboard 30 fucking years ago.

"You know what they want? Obedient workers ­ people who are just smart enough to run the machines and do the paperwork but just dumb enough to passively accept all these increasingly shittier jobs with the lower pay, the longer hours, reduced benefits, the end of overtime and the vanishing pension that disappears the minute you go to collect it. And, now, they're coming for your Social Security. They want your fucking retirement money. They want it back, so they can give it to their criminal friends on Wall Street. And you know something? They'll get it. They'll get it all, sooner or later, because they own this fucking place. It's a big club, and you ain't in it. You and I are not in the big club."

"This country is finished."

U.S. Attorney Loretta Lynch said: "The investigation revealed that staggering amounts of cash, hundreds of thousands of U.S. dollars daily, were being deposited into HSBC Mexico using boxes specially made to fit through tellers' windows to speed the transactions."


It wasn't just the cartels that benefited from what prosecutors called the HSBC's "willful failure" to report suspicious activity. HSBC instructed an Iranian bank how to conceal $183 million in transactions. HSBC also admitted to cutting the number of internal watchdogs to save money.


Assistant Attorney General Lanny Breuer said: "HSBC is paying a heavy price for its conduct, and under the terms of today's agreement, if the bank fails to comply with the agreement in any way, any way at all, we reserve the right as the government to fully prosecute it."


Under the terms of Tuesday's settlement, nobody at HSBC will face criminal charges.
