Yes We Want A Bank Royal Commission

I'd settle for a federal ICAC with the powers to investigate and prosecute both govt. and non govt. institutions

So does that mean you're opposed to the reintroduction of the ABCC?

you are posturing again. our legal system - and common sense - dictates that we are assume to be acting legally unless evidence to the contrary is presented.

A Senate inquiry has heard "explosive" evidence from a whistleblower who has accused the Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA) of continuing to deny justice to victims of its financial planning scandal.

Quote:

CommInsure, one of Australia's biggest life insurers with about 4 million policy holders, has been caught out using unscrupulous practices buried in the conditions of the fine print of its contracts to deny, delay or avoid paying claims.

Quote:

Commonwealth Bank staff were allegedly complicit in a $76 million Ponzi scheme and received secret commissions for their role in the alleged fraud, which was ignored by the bank's management for almost five years - until police were alerted.

Quote:

The revelations that NAB's financial advice arm has been infected with some of the same contagions as CBA's – including forged client signatures, file reconstructions, and poor advice leading to compensation payouts for some clients – underscores the problems festering in Australia's financial advice industry.

Quote:

One of Australia’s ‘big four’ banks, Australia and New Zealand Banking Group (ASX: ANZ) this time, is in ASIC’s firing line over allegations that its traders potentially manipulated the Australian Bank Bill Swap Rate (BBSW) during a period from 2007 to 2013.

Three banks have already been fined for their role in the scheme – Royal Bank of Scotland, UBS, and BNP Paribas – while 10 other members of the 14-member BBSW panel are still under investigation.

Other banks on the panel include Macquarie Group Ltd (ASX: MQG), Commonwealth Bank of Australia (ASX: CBA), Suncorp Group Ltd (ASX: SUN), National Australia Bank Ltd. (ASX: NAB) and Westpac Banking Corp (ASX: WBC) alongside Bank of Canada, Citigroup, Deutsche Bank, HSBC, JP Morgan, and Lloyds.

But I suppose all of the above is just scuttlebutt.

However a convicted conman's word in a statement given in a prison cell about an alleged incident 25 years ago, was gospel & should have made the PM resign.

Go Figure?

Then Metcraft gets a phone call from higher powers to back off and it's business as usual for the crooks. Yeh that really works.

Well as we saw from the union commission, integrity isn't exactly high in a RC either. The point is that ASIC exists. Use what exists first, strengthen it, and if it still doesn't work then do an Rc. But an Rc will simply reveal the system is broken and likely just tel us what we already know: that ASIC needs stronger powers.

Malc now? You grown fond of the backstabber, cods? And no, in typical fashion Turnbull wants to do nothing. He doesn't want to strengthen ASIC - he was part of a government that gutted it for the sake of a few gold coins!
