The case sounds incredible. According to Blick von heute, the manager of a CS branch in Bern receives a six-figure sum from a customer as a “gift”.
At that time, in February of this year, the client was severely weakened. You have severe cancer. The woman dies in mid-2020.
Now his nephew is going public. You want to ask the bank ombudsman for help through a lawyer. A criminal complaint is also possible.
In September, the nephew reported the incident to the CS whistleblower office. He wanted to know if employees could accept donations of this amount, without a donation agreement.
Little has happened so far. Check the case, said the bank facing the gaze. If errors have occurred, action can be taken.
The central question is: How could the director receive so much money from her client without the internal alert system responding?
When a customer makes high payments, compliance is often triggered automatically. The payment remains blocked with the information that the bank is verifying.
Here, 100,000 francs from a 73-year-old woman ends up in a CS director’s account, and nothing happens in compliance, either automatically or through an expert.
The banker also made the seriously ill client pay her horse’s bills of nearly 20,000 Swiss francs.
According to the nephew, his aunt had already had to take strong medication, she was no longer entirely sensitive.
A problem for the bank could be that the client had designated her nephew in 2015 as sole heir and authorized representative.
Shouldn’t the bank ensure from now on that the large flow of money from the client to the manager is reported to the nephew?
The case is one of incomprehensible incidents. CS suffered a first-class debacle in Geneva with a client advisor hailing from the French cosmetics industry.
He was internally celebrated as a hero because he had drawn wealthy Russians to the ground thanks to his language skills.
Meanwhile, it has become a scam. The adviser ended up in prison, where he committed suicide, Russian clients take action against the CS with expensive lawyers.
Gotham City, a French-speaking justice blog, recently reported that a CS advisor had defrauded clients by 30 million in Geneva.
What happens at the top of CS, where you have to ensure compliance works? Nothing.
