HSBC set up an entire subsidiary firm with the specific intention of using it to launder the money of Mexican drug cartels. It spirited over $7bn of the stuff between 2001 and 2007. HSBC were found guilty on all charges – but no executives were arrested, none of the bank’s branches, operations or websites were closed down. In fact, HSBC were able to settle it all with a fine, paid by the company, worth just 14% of the profits the bank made in the same year.”
