Standard Chartered Bank Issues Statement on Inaccuracies in Media Reports of $9.6 Billion Unlawful Transactions in 2018 Brutus Trading Whistleblower Lawsuit & 2024 Court Ruling

18th August | Hong Kong

Standard Chartered Bank has issued a statement on inaccuracies in media reports of $9.6 billion unlawful transactions in 2018 Brutus Trading whistleblower lawsuit & 2024 court ruling.  Announcement (15/8/25): “ We note reporting containing profound factual inaccuracies in the legacy Brutus qui tam case. The underlying allegations – including the claim that there are $9.6 billion in unlawful transactions – are entirely false and have been rejected by the US courts multiple times. We expect the dismissal of this case will continue to be upheld on appeal.  We will of course fully cooperate with any relevant authorities to reassure them that these allegations are meritless. The facts have not changed.  We remain resolute in our fight against financial crime in every location where we operate, including the United States. We maintain the highest level of compliance with sanctions laws and regulations.  We will continue to defend ourselves vigorously against baseless allegations by Brutus which seek to damage our reputation and are motivated by personal financial gain.”
