“Yesterday, I reported that JPMorganChase will start to limit cash withdrawals and ban certain business customers from sending international wire transfers, from November 17 onward. Now, word comes via Simon Black that starting October 20th, HSBC USA’s Premier clients will have to wait a minimum of five days before transferring funds to their OWN international accounts! This is not good. The cover story for these measures is to ‘protect’ banks and customers from theft. In reality, this is a major move toward limiting movement of capital overseas.”
