Bank of Credit and Commerce International |
The Bank of Credit and Commerce International (BCCI) was a major international bank founded in London, United Kingdom in 1972 by Agha Hasan Abedi, a leading Pakistani financier. The company was registered in Luxembourg. At its peak, it operated in 78 countries, had over 400 branches, and had assets in excess of US$ 20 billion making it the 7th largest bank in the world by assets. BCCI became the focus in 1991 of the world's worst financial scandal and what was called a "$20-billion-plus heist". Regulators in the United States and the United Kingdom found it to be involved in money laundering, bribery, support of terrorism, arms trafficking, the sale of nuclear technologies, the commission and facilitation of tax evasion, smuggling, illegal immigration, and the illicit purchases of banks and real estate. The bank was found to have at least $13 billion unaccounted for. The bank was dubbed satirically the "Bank of Crooks and Criminals International." Investigators in the U.S. and the UK revealed that BCCI had been "set up deliberately to avoid centralized regulatory review, and operated extensively in bank secrecy jurisdictions. Its affairs were extraordinarily complex. Its officers were sophisticated international bankers whose apparent objective was to keep their affairs secret, to commit fraud on a massive scale, and to avoid detection"; BCCI organized its own intelligence network, diplomatic corps and shipping & trading companies. The liquidators, Deloitte & Touche, filed a lawsuit against Price Waterhouse and Ernst & Young - the bank's auditors - which was settled for $175 million in 1998. A further lawsuit against the Emir of Abu Dhabi, a major shareholder, was launched in 1999 for approximately $400 million. BCCI creditors also instituted a $1 billion suit against the Bank of England as a regulatory body. After a nine-year struggle, due to the Bank's statutory immunity, the case went to trial in January 2004. However, in November 2005, liquidators Deloitte &c. dropped any action against the Bank of England as it was no longer considered in the best interests of the creditors after a High Court ruling. It is widely held amongst stakeholders in many Islamic countries that the Bank's closure was due to its perceived threat to Western interests. The perception of threat derived from the Bank's predominantly Islamic client base, and its loans to the Government of Pakistan at a time when the US had imposed sanctions against Pakistan, citing that government's pursuit of nuclear technology. |

Bank Saderat Iran (BSI ) was founded by the prominent Mofarrah and Bolurforushan families, commenced operation on 13 November 1952 with a board of three directors and 20 employees.

On 7 June 1979 , after the revolution, all Iranian private banks were nationalized and became state-owned. In 1980, branches and sub-branches of BSI in the Iranian provinces were turned into independent banks, named Bank Saderat Ostan (province). Today, BSI has 29 owned provincial bank subsidiaries and over 200 affiliated companies, supervised by Ghadir Investment Company. Iranian banks are administered on the basis of a law passed by the Islamic Revolution Council on 25 September 1979 , and the provisions of its Articles of Association. On September 9, 2006, the bank was blacklisted by the United States because it allegedly transfers money to terrorist organizations. According to the U.S. Department of the Treasury, Bank Saderat is used by the Government of Iran to transfer money to what the US considers to be terrorist organizations, including Hezbollah, Hamas, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command and Palestinian Islamic Jihad. Under the current Iranian Transactions Regulations (31 CFR Part 560), U.S. banks may process certain funds transfers involving an Iranian bank, such as transfers for authorized or exempt transactions and "U-turn" transactions. U-turn transactions allow U.S. banks to process payments involving Iran that begin and end with a non-Iranian foreign bank. Bank Saderat will not be able to participate in any transfers involving U.S. banks, effective from the date that the amendment to the regulations is filed with the U.S. Federal Register. By prohibiting U-turn and all other transactions with Bank Saderat, the bank is denied all direct and indirect access to the U.S. financial system.

The bank, with 13 others, was nationalized by the Indian Government on 19th July, 1969. The bank currently has 3,168 branches and 270 extension counters across 27 Indian states. The present Chairperson and Managing Director, Ms. Homi. A. Daruwala, has initiated steps to bring this bank to a par with private-sector banks. She has taken decisions regarding computerisation, ATM services and core banking. The bank is planning to introduce core banking solutions (CBS) in 1,000 branches. As of 31 March 2006, the bank achieved a landmark: crossing a business mix of Rs. 1,05,000.00 crores. The next target has been fixed at doubling this figure in the next three years. Krishnan Subharamaniam, Executive Director of the bank, in his message to staff members, has called upon them to achieve the target and suggested some steps. One of these steps is to change the manner in which employees extend service to customers across different delivery channels. He has advocated the adoption of the '3R' principles when dealing with customers - recognition, respect and response. This is asserted to be the path to make customers experience 'Customer Delight'. Subbaraman is of the view that to be able to achieve the coveted goal of at least Rs.2,00,000.00 crores in three years' time, it is urgent to add large numbers of new customers to the bank's existing portfolio. Central Bank also came with its IPO, which was oversubscribed 64 times. The bank has plans to change the bank's signboard across the country, trying to impart a new look to the bank after the IPO. |
