The Summer Is Not Over
ProPublica has an excellent summary of this summer's banking scandals. I've written about several: Libor, money laundering, JPMorgan. I did miss two: Wells Fargo and Capital One.
Wells Fargo cheated black people to whom they granted a mortgage; they charged them more than white people. Capital One had two failures this season. They tried to boost revenues by pressuring their cardholders to buy unnecessary features and charged them a lot for these features. The bank also violated the law by foreclosing on servicemen.
