Danske Bank Facing US$1 Billion Money Laundering Suit

 

Wednesday, 23 September 2020

Plaintiffs are seeking over US$1 billion in an international lawsuit against a Danish bank accused of facilitating rampant money laundering over the course of almost a decade.

Klar Advokater, a Danish law firm that alongside U.S. outfits Grant & Eisenhofer and DRRT is pursuing the civil action, on Tuesday submitted a final set of complaints from pension funds and other investors adversely affected by lax regulatory controls at disgraced Danske Bank, according to a statement from DRRT.

 

The latest filings bring the overall damages, sought by a total of 331 investors, up to more than 7.1 billion Danish crowns (US$1.12 billion).

 

Alexander Reus, managing partner at DRRT, said that the financial institution had been all but complicit in the money laundering scandal, which allowed no less than US$230 billion in potentially illicit cash to be funnelled through accounts held by clients at its Estonian branch between 2007 and 2015.

 

โ€œDanske Bankโ€™s efforts to conceal and misrepresent the true nature of its internal scheme of facilitating and promoting high-profit money laundering servicesโ€ makes the scandal โ€œone of the most significant money laundering and corporate violation cases in European history,โ€ he said.

 

It will not be the bankโ€™s only day in court. A slew of other lawsuits are currently in the works, including one brought by more than 70 legal entities representing 155 institutional investors and led by the pan-European consultancy firm Deminor.

 

Winner of OCCRPโ€™s 2018 title for Actor of the Year in Organised Crime and Corruption, Danske Bank has been the subject of several previous OCCRP investigations, including into how the financial institution played host to a slush fund for Azerbaijani elites accused of human-rights abuses, as well as its role in the notorious Russian Laundromat scandal.

 

In the wake of revelations contained in those reports, the U.S. Justice Department has undertaken a wide-ranging probe into illicit financial activity at the bank - one which senior executives have since conceded may not leave Denmarkโ€™s largest lender โ€œin a position to contest a lot,โ€ according to Bloomberg.

 

A spokesperson for Danske Bank nevertheless told OCCRP on Wednesday that "we will defend ourselves against any claims that may arise and consider any development in cooperation with our lawyers."

The Parable of the Donkey and the Miller

 

n this fable a man and his son are accompanied by their donkey and meet constant criticism from passers-by of the way it is used or treated by them. The story's purpose is to show that everyone has their own opinion and there is no way one can satisfy all. There are four or five different elements to the story that are ordered differently according to version. When both walk beside the donkey they are criticised for not riding it. When the father rides, he is blamed for making his young son walk; when the son rides, he is blamed for leaving his elderly father on foot. When both ride, they are berated for overburdening their beast. In later versions the father then exclaims that the only option left is to carry the donkey on his back; in others he does so, or father and son tie the donkey to a pole which they carry on their shoulders. This action causes general mirth and has an unhappy outcome, resulting in the donkey's death through one cause or another

Feudalism got fucked by the money lenders considering it was an agrarian economy that was seasonal and humans aren't naturally good at conservation. This point was exploited by lending out more money than was required paid back. This would leave the lenders with land at the end of each cycle. The land needed to be worked, so they called in the Sumarians or "people from the south" to work the land and they needed a security force to evict residents, so that led to a police force.

You can figure it out from here.

All of you fighting against "racism" must be hypocrites, because you always ignore racism committed against Asians by "Mexicans". In fact, some of you laugh with the racists.

 

Some Asian males are racially attacked by racist "Mexicans" every second.

 

You never fought against racism. I doubt some of you ever will.

> lending out more money than was required paid back

*lending out less than required paid back

This is why there is less physical dollar than there is credit. It's displacement technology and built to fail, but the failure is always in the form of real-value collateral.
