Hi, want to help out with HSBC and money laundering aspects?

[edit]

Hi, I'm writing to relatively recent contributors, including on the talk page, and asking if they want to help out. I still think there's a fair amount of work with this whole money laundering aspect, not that we've made mistakes, but rather in terms of making a good article better. For example, I think officials of the U.S. Justice Department have directly said they did not want to punish HSBC harder and risk the bank losing its license---because of risk of major economic disruption.

If you have time, please, jump in and help. We can probably very much use your help. Thanks. FriendlyRiverOtter (talk) 21:51, 12 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry I never responded... grad school keeps me away from this account most of the time. But I'll take a look and make some additions where I can. If you can find a reliable source that juxtaposes HSBC's actions in this case vs. the elliot spitzer prostitution scandal, I would highly suggest you include it, as it is very telling. Basically, HSBC tipped off the feds about Spitzer's suspicious financial transactions, which only totalled a few hundred thousand dollars in a couple transfers, while the money laundering was in the billions and occured over many years. I know The Young Turks covered it, but I'm not sure if that source is acceptable (my wikipedia knowledge is still a bit limited). Perhaps there are others though.
