How Deutsche Bank Enabled a Dirty Offshore Bank to Move Dark Money

> The German giant was kept in the dark about the true owners of suspicious FBME accounts whose transactions it was authorizing – despite requirements for correspondent banks to perform additional checks when signs of money laundering arise.

Yeah. Sure.

> Deutsche showered FBME with “Processing Excellence” awards for at least four straight years before the bank was named as a “primary money laundering concern” by the US government.

Yep. Clearly there was a lot of money to be made.

> Deutsche has faced questions over why it lent Trump more than $600 million at a time when other Wall Street banks had frozen him out. The bank was reportedly subpoenaed by special counsel Robert Mueller, who is apparently investigating the US president’s finances alongside his campaign’s contacts with Russia.

Hmm...
