The world’s most successful criminals: Banks

A single small branch of Danske Bank in Estonia processed £120 billion between 2007 and 2015.

No one really knows where this money went. All we know is that the last people to see it was…three large banks in the US. They were the last check, and when that failed, the money was into the global financial system.”

Deutsche Bank, J P Morgan and Bank of America were all reportedly involved in clearing dollar transactions for Danske’s Estonian branch.”

There is no chance in the world…. That any of this money is going to be tracked down and that any criminals lose a single cent.”
