A Full Service Bank: How BCCI Stole Billions Around the World James Ring Adams
On 5 July 1991, BCCI offices were shut down in the UK, the US and five other countries. The bank and its founder were indicted on charges of grand larceny, bribery and money laundering and a $200 million dollar fine was imposed. The Bank of Credit and Commerce International was used by dictators, drug dealers and arms merchants. This book exposes BCCI's criminal schemes and its increasingly precarious financial status. It uses previously unpublished internal bank documents, the minutes of BCCI's executive meetings and extensive interviews.
