Eighteen Individuals and Entities Charged in International Operation Targeting Widespread Fraud and Manipulation in the Cryptocurrency Markets
Wednesday, October 9, 2024

BOSTON – Eighteen individuals and entities have been charged for widespread fraud and manipulation in the cryptocurrency markets. Charges were unsealed in Boston against the leaders of four cryptocurrency companies, four cryptocurrency financial services firms (known as “market makers”) and employees at those firms.

“What the FBI uncovered in this case is essentially a new twist to old-school financial crime. ‘Operation Token Mirrors’ targeted nefarious token developers, promoters, and market makers in the crypto space.

“The FBI took the unprecedented step of creating its very own cryptocurrency token and company to identify, disrupt, and bring these alleged fraudsters to justice.”

TD Bank pleads guilty in money laundering case, will pay $3 billion in penalties
PUBLISHED THU, OCT 10 2024

TD Bank pleaded guilty in a criminal money laundering case and agreed to pay a whopping $3 billion in fines and other penalties to the Department of Justice and federal financial regulators to settle a probe over its failure to monitor money laundering by drug cartels.

TD Bank pleaded guilty Thursday to multiple criminal charges and agreed to pay a whopping $3 billion in fines and other penalties to the Department of Justice and financial regulators for failing to monitor money laundering by drug traffickers and other criminals.

As part of the deal, TD Bank, whose U.S. unit is the 10th-largest American bank by assets, also will have limits to its growth imposed by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency.

“By making its services convenient for criminals, TD Bank became one,” said Attorney General Merrick Garland on Thursday.

“Today, TD Bank also became the largest bank in U.S. history to plead guilty to Bank Secrecy Act program failures, and the first U.S. bank in history to plead guilty to conspiracy to commit money laundering,” Garland said.

Let me be clear: Our investigation continues, and no individual involved in TD Bank’s illegal conduct is off limits.”

Federal agency closes Oklahoma bank citing 'false and deceptive' records

The OCC said in a news release it acted after “identifying false and deceptive bank records and other information suggesting fraud that revealed depletion of the bank’s capital.”

The First National Bank of Lindsay reopened on Monday as a branch of First Bank & Trust Co. of Duncan.

Citing “false and deceptive bank records and other information suggesting fraud,” the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) on Friday closed the First National Bank of Lindsay.

An independent bureau of the U.S. Department of the Treasury, the OCC supervises all national banks and federal savings associations, as well as federal branches and agencies of foreign banks.

The regulatory agency announced it also found that the First National Bank of Lindsay “was in an unsafe or unsound condition to transact business and that the bank’s assets were less than its obligations to its creditors and others.”

The OCC announced it also is referring the matter to the U.S. Department of Justice.

Customers with accounts in excess of $250,000 should contact the FDIC toll-free at 1-866-314-1744 to set up an appointment to discuss their deposits.

The First National Bank of Lindsay is the second bank to fail in the nation this year, federal regulators announced. The last bank failure was Republic First Bank in Philadelphia on April 26. The last failure in Oklahoma — the Freedom State Bank in Freedom — was in 2014.

Onkohan tuolla pankkimaailmassa nyt kaikki ihan kohdillaan, tuosta kun katsoo vaikka vuoden 2008 kohdilta, eli silloisen talouskriisin ajoilta noita realisoimattomia tappioita, niin jotain isompaa saattaa olla tuloillaan.

Nyt tehdään kokonaan uutta maailmaa, maailmaa jossa ihmistyöllä ja ihmisälyllä ei enää ole sellaista asemaa kuin ennen. Porukka dissaa ChatGPT:n taitoja tajuamatta, että tämä on vasta aivan ensimmäinen alkupiraus ja se mitä on tulossa on yhtä suuri mullistus kuin joku maanviljelyksen keksiminen 10000 eKr. Samaan aikaan luonto pistää vanhentuneelle jatkuvan kasvun mallille lopun tämän vuosisadan aikana joka tapauksessa. Pallo ei kestä 10 mrd länsimaisesti kuluttavaa ihmistä, hyvä jos 2-3 miljardia, vaikka kuinka ekologisia valintoja tehtäisiin. Yksittäinen ihminen näkee tästä muutoksesta vains suuret kaaret, vähä vähältä huononevat elinolot länsimaissa, massamaahanmuuton ja ympäristön tuhoutumisen. Lapsia ei enää tehdä kehittyneissä maissa, mielenkiinnolla odotan miten kauan kestää että niiden pukkaaminen loppuu Afrikassa.

Ettei vaan sveitsiläinen jättipankki UBS olisi jonkinlaisissa vaikeuksissa:

Press release
Date: 15 October 2024

UBS resolution reporting:

recovery and emergency plans to be revised

"UBS’s recovery and emergency plans will be revised due to the takeover of Credit Suisse. The Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority FINMA has suspended the annual approval of the recovery and emergency plans and determined that the integration of CS requires adjustments by UBS to ensure continued resolvability

As a global systemically important bank, UBS has to fulfil special crisis prevention requirements. It draws up recovery and emergency plans, both of which are assessed annually by FINMA. The recovery plan describes how a destabilisation or risk of insolvency is to be averted through the company’s own efforts.

The emergency plan shows how the systemically important functions can be maintained if stabilisation attempts are unsuccessful."

Taxpayers can't pay for 'misconduct of banks' - Swiss finance minister
November 2, 2024

"What I can say clearly is that it cannot be the case that taxpayers foot the bill for the misconduct of banks and managers," Keller-Sutter told Swiss newspaper Aargauer Zeitung.

"No one in this country understands this anymore - the goodwill has been used up."

The government earlier this year laid out plans for tougher capital requirements for UBS and Switzerland's three other big banks in a bid to make the financial sector more robust after the crash of Credit Suisse.

Details of the exact capital requirements are yet to emerge, but the possibility that UBS could be made to hold up $15 billion to $25 billion in additional capital have met resistance from the bank.

The government wanted a competitive banking sector, but also had a responsibility for the whole country and therefore take precautions to prevent an uncontrolled failure of a systemically important bank, Keller-Sutter told the newspaper."

Kyllä siellä jotain isoja vaikeuksia on UBS:llä, kun pankkia pitäisi pääomittaa ja puhutaan systeemisesti tärkeän pankin hallitsemattoman kaatumisen ehkäisystä.
