The BOE says the Fed bank never said anything about any wrongdoing, a claim that's backed up by a Washington Post report today. 4 Comments [U.S. Economy, Financials]
- Friday, July 20, 2012, 12:29 PM It's a "risk off" day for European financials (EUFN -3.4%), after Spain's expected bank bailout approval is accompanied by a weak GDP forecast. Unsurprisingly, Spanish banks are the biggest losers: SAN -7.7%. BBVA -8.4%. U.S. banks are only doing better by comparison (XLF -1.3%). 8 Comments [Financials, On the Move]
- Friday, July 20, 2012, 8:41 AM The Libor scandal looks like it might be causing a bit of a fallout between British and American financial authorities. The BOE releases emails which back up its assertions that while Timothy Geithner might have called for steps to strengthen Libor's credibility in 2008, he didn't make any allegations of wrongful behavior despite Barclays (BCS) admitting to the NY Fed it was reporting artificially low rates. 1 Comment [U.S. Economy, Global & FX, Top Stories]
- Monday, July 16, 2012, 11:34 AM Former Barclays (BCS) COO Jerry del Missier is testifying to a U.K. parliamentary panel over the Libor scandal.

- Monday, July 16, 2012, 6:14 AM NY and Connecticut AGs Eric Schneiderman and George Jepsen have been investigating the possible manipulation of the Libor rates for six months. The state can use the powerful Martin Act, which allows authorities to establish fraud without needing to prove intent. Meanwhile, Barclays (BCS) traders involved in the scandal could be hit with U.S. charges by Labor Day on Sept. 3, Bloomberg reports. 1 Comment [Financials]
- Sunday, July 15, 2012, 5:30 AM From the English city of Leicester to Japan, Barclays (BCS) has been losing clients due to the Libor scandal, although the cloud hanging over several other banks is preventing business from deteriorating more quickly. Leicester council is withdrawing £6M in deposits, while the Japan Bank for International Cooperation omitted Barclays from a bond deal worth up to $1B. Comment! [Financials]
- Sunday, July 15, 2012, 1:50 AM The Justice Department is building criminal cases against a number of banks and their employees, including Barclays (BCS), for their role in the manipulation of Libor rates, the NYT reports.
