There serious ties with Laiki (Popular) Bank and greece despite against advice from BoC they bought bonds in greece in 2009 and still had get out jail when greece recovered abit later to sell it. Does go back to 1974 crisis.
Very toxic banking practises. What Cyprus banking sector 3 times its economy?
With us at that could we be considered similar fair game what banks in UK are toxic. We know investment arm RBS is very toxic.
Could RBS be on the hit list. If this now the way we going clean up bad banking practises.
