Re: Tech Clerks - General Debt Matters Thread

HSBC boss Stuart Gulliver apologised for "the mistakes of the past" as the banking giant set aside a further 1.5 billion US dollars (£950 million) to cover the cost of mis-selling claims and a money-laundering scandal in the US.

The bank said on Monday it increased its provision to cover mis-sold payment protection insurance (PPI) by 537 million US dollars (£341.6 million) in the three months to June, bringing the total charge to date to 1.7 billion US dollars (£1.1 billion).

HSBC also took a 237 million US dollar (£150 million) hit for mis-selling complex financial products known as interest-rate swaps to small businesses, while it has set aside 700 million US dollars (£445 million) to deal with money-laundering penalties.

Mr Gulliver said: "We are profoundly sorry for our mistakes, and are committed to putting them right."

It's always helpful to include the source and a link to it when you post legal stuff so people know whether to believe it or take it with a pinch of salt. The Law Gazette is most reliable though unlike the Master of the Rolls

Brace yourself for unprecedented change, says master of rolls - 'Another nauseating judicial announcement. It's the judges who encourage satellite litigation by their wholly inconsistent approach to the rules, and willingness to allow every small esoteric point to be taken to the nth degree.'
