A general view of Standard Chartered Bank Headquarters at The City Of London Britain 15 August 2012. Standard Chartered Bank will appear later today before New York State's Department of Financial Services (DFS) to answer allegations that it colluded with Iranian clients in disguising $250bn of transactions over a nine-year period in contravention of US sanctions against Iran. The DFS's report highlights communications that referenced the potential dangers of carrying out such transactions and accuses the bank of leaving 'the US financial system vulnerable to terrorists, weapons dealers, drug kingpins and corrupt regimes'. The New York regulator has also suggested the bank could have its state banking licence revoked.
