-Riggs Bank was a bank headquartered in Washington, D.C. For most of its history, it was the largest bank headquartered in that city. On May 13, 2005, after the exposure of several money laundering scandals, the bank was acquired by PNC Financial Services. The bank was known for handling the personal financial affairs of many U.S. Presidents and many embassies in Washington, D.C.
The bank was investigated for several money laundering scandals, including going to great lengths to allow former Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet to hide his fortune after his accounts were subjected to asset freezing and for unknowingly allowing the hijackers involved in the September 11 attacks to transfer money due to lax controls at the bank.

BUSH CARTEL PEDOPHILIA AND RIGGS BANK The President of Riggs Investment from 1997 to the sale of Riggs Bank to PNC in 2005 was Jonathan Bush. Jonathan provided “services” for a number of embassies in Washington, and he assumed control of Riggs during its acquisition by PNC after Riggs was accused of laundering money for such CIA clients as the Saudi royal family, President Teodoro Obiang of Equatorial Guinea, and former Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet. Sasse also served as vice chairman of the CIA-connected Bankers Trust and president of Riggs Capital Partners, a division of Riggs Bank
MONEY LAUNDERING THROUGH RIGGS In the mid-1970s, members of the Saudi royal family set up covert accounts at the Riggs Bank in Washington, amounting to tens of millions of dollars. This money was used by the so-called “Safari Club” to run intelligence operations. A Saudi named Omar al-Bayoumi opened bank accounts at Riggs Bank for two of the 9/11 hijackers. About two weeks after the account was opened, al-Bayoumi’s wife began receiving monthly payments totaling tens of thousands of dollars from Princess Haifa bin Faisal, the wife of Saudi ambassador Bandar bin Sultan. Upon discovery of these transactions, the FBI began investigating the bank for possible money-laundering and terrorist financing. Several Saudi accounts were discovered to have financial improprieties, including a lack of required background checks and a consistent failure to alert regulators to large transactions, in violation of federal banking laws.
