Frage an diejenigen mit Geschäftskonto hier:
Seid ihr von eurer Bank jemals nach einer Pass-Kopie eines Kunden gefragt worden, um die Rechtmäßigkeit einer Zahlung nachzuweisen?
Well, whether they did or did not, theirs is the first bank to take advantage of the UK's move away from EU regulations (and the scrapping of the cap on bonuses) to reveal that they have now removed their cap on the bonuses Goldman Sachs traders & bankers can earn.
I for one am relieved that untrammelled greed can return to this august institution - after all as Gordon Gecko (albeit a fictional banker) reminded us: greed is good!
Sehe ich das richtig? Bei einigen Sparkassen kostet die Push Nachricht bei Kontobewegung Geld?
Gefühlt sage ich es mir jeden Tag. Ich bin seit dem Knax Konto aus den 90zigern dabei, aber jetzt ist genug. #banking#sparkasse#deutschland
“‘while allowing #theFed the flexibility to unwisely expand its remit into inherently #political areas such as #credit rationing & #banking#regulation.’ Here is #groupthink: ‘Despite the biggest #monetary errors in 4 decades,’ Katz & Miran write, none of the 9 recent appointees to the Board of Governors was on record as having made accurate predictions about #inflation’s path.
The #UnitedStates will impose sanctions on Iran’s missile & drone program, as well as entities supporting the Iranian regime or military, #NationalSecurity adviser Jake Sullivan announced late Tues.

Lloyds Bank have decided that to further their 'strategic transformation' they are going to cut staff in their risk management section, because executives at the bank believe they have been 'blocking' some actions towards transformation.
Its classic managerial messenger shooting... banks know that actually they can really take on dangerous risk (and executive earn big bonuses) as in the end the state will effectively bail them out!
Trump stands to gain billions… from the merger between TrumpMedia & Tech & the blank-check co [#SPAC] #DWAC, which took the parent company of #TruthSocial public.
The new details are drawn from docs incl’g: #PaxumBank recs showing #Postolnikov having access to the trust’s acct, papers that created the trust showing as its settlor a lawyer in St Petersburg, #Russia, & 3 yrs of its #financial transactions.
The concern surrounding the #loans to #Trump Media is that #ESFamilyTrust may have been used to complete a transaction that Paxum itself could not.
Paxum DOES NOT OFFER LOANS in the #US as it lacks a US #BANKING#LICENSE & is not regulated by the #FDIC.

Had trouble understanding what's going on with the unwinding of Quantitive Easing (QE), sometimes referred to as Quantitive Tightening (QT)?
Here's @sjwrenlewis exploring some of the key issues with a critique (the origin sin of QE was Tory austerity) & showing how surpluses from the whole operation have ended up (no surprise, they've landed in the banking sector).
As always SWL is clear on complex issues & makes some stinging points!
I’ve spent over an hour on the phone w/my credit union today for what shouldn’t have been a call in the first place: adding my card to my phone for tap-to-pay. Every other card I’ve added has been a quick, automated process.
Aaaaand by the end of the call, it still wasn’t working.
I really want to support my local credit union, but this is unacceptable. I’ve been trialing Monzo for my pocket money; this may push me over the edge to use it for our joint account as well.
The Rs 330-Debit That Revealed A Sprawling, Illegal Government-Run Fraud
"It wasn’t a question of a Rs-330 loss to me. It was done without my consent. It was illegal. Besides, if you added it all up—Rs 330 deducted from thousands, maybe millions, of customers—the sum climbed to hundreds of crores," writes Hemant Gairola.
Banks Want Forged Paper Trails After Taking Money Illegally From Customers For Modi Govt's Flagship Schemes
Despite media exposés and frequent public complaints, banks nationwide continue taking money without authorisation from accounts to enrol customers in low-cost life-insurance and accident-insurance schemes launched by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
To meet targets set by the union government, bank offices are now withdrawing money from accounts of many customers en masse, in some cases even forging customer consent and asking local offices to camouflage forgeries.
Someone in the IT department of my bank (Komerční banka) is acting smarter than they should be.
When I tried to log in to the Internet banking, I got a message saying that "OS Linux is no longer secure" and recommending that I use an up-to-date OS, e.g. Windows 11.
