From the director of ‘Goldman Sachs: The Bank that Rules the World’ comes a major new investigation into corruption at one of the world’s top financial institutions – HSBC.
If HSBC were a country, it would be the fifth world economic power. Founded during the golden age of the Opium trade to enable the British Empire to access the Chinese market, it has created a unique network to move dirty money around the world. From tax evasion to money laundering for the mafia and manipulation of currency, “this bank had done everything bad that a bank can possibly do.”
In 2012, HSBC nearly lost its license to operate in the US for laundering the money of the Mexican and Columbian drug cartels. Criminal charges were filed and HSBC’s executives hauled before a Senate committee. But George Osborne, UK’s then Chancellor of the Exchequer, wrote to his counterpart in America and to the Chairman of the Federal Reserve to plead for leniency. He claimed that if HSBC received a harsh punishment, it would have serious repercussions on the world’s financial and economic stability. The letter worked and HSBC was fined 2 billion euros. The equivalent of one month’s profits.
As the center of international finance moves to Asia, HSBC is in prime position. It is the most Chinese of Western banks and the most European of Chinese banks. Protected by London, blessed by Beijing, who would dare attack it?

I kind of love that this shows the ability of the world to truly unite around a universal cause, against all adversity and prejudice. Wealth. Power. Status.

America was built on corruption so I ain't surprised noobs. Ignorance is bliss until it's to late for the chattel.
Good help as working people,
3000 billion dollars?? Ha ha, Americans don't understand 3 Trillion dollars is it? 🤣🤣🤣
"If the people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered…. I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies…. The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."
Thomas Jefferson
End the federal reserve
Mortgages, perpetual debt on property. You buy a property, sell it in seven years, hopefully get at least your down payment back and that property is mortgaged again for another term. Real estate is a perpetual money machine. Few ever own their property out right. And then the government takes your property when you're old because social security won't even pay the property tax bill when you're old. It's not just HSBC, it's all banksters. You deposit your money for safe keeping and they immediately over leverage your money. Most banks are in debt, that means your deposits are paying their debts because they all got too big. A bank was supposed to be a place to put your money so nobody could break into your house and steal the money from under your pillow. Now, the banks are the thieves.
Once again it shows that you can't stop drugs from moving and sold be much less expensive to legalize it. All the money spent on drug organization to what it would cost for education about it s use and rehab.nothing has slowed down in the fifty years I've been here
The is a great distraction piece. We don’t need to uncover dirty behaviour behind other country’s banks when we’ve got plenty of massive predatory banks right here in our own western countries that dwarf any banks in Asia by far!
I remember trying to open an account years back. I needed 3 million to do so. Too bad the tree in my yard didn't drop enough.
No problem with that…. I wonder how much of a problem they'd have if some of that money was ransome money for yours or someone's kids . It's criminal
Nothing happens: US government is the biggest cartel

Hodl/Trading isn't a get rich scheme, and neither is it about guessing! You need utmost accurate entry signals to be in the uptrend of a market on BTC, ETH, LTC, ADA, BNB, PLTR etc mining/leveraging/staking. Rather than putting efforts in pump and dump coins, or choose a guaranteed way your portfolio can increase with about 28% weekly. Since I started trading with Mr. Thierry Veilleux, whose skill sets are extraordinary, I have seen enormous profits on my investment. Working hard is good, but working wisely is preferable.
Just waooh!

Research Cestui Que Vie, Trust Act of 1933. Americas Executive Branches (IRS NSA DOJ FBI CIVIL COURTS ETC) are Sub Contractors & should not exist per the Constitution. People are finding out you dont actually owe & these "contractors' who are run by England are there to collect all kinds of money by making us pay more taxes (all kinds). They are actually have no bearing on us but you need to look up what you need to do to get free. Be sure you find the site by Anna Von Reitz.
HSBC has nothing to do with Bank of China. Established in 1865 by people of London ie: a European country!
Crooks interviewing crooks😂
Allan Zeman, money laundering is what he is describing so casually, as being part of doing business in Mexico. Hmmm… the fact that he takes it so casually shows he fears no one.
