Standard Chartered, a prominent British bank and sponsor of Liverpool, has been accused of facilitating financial transactions for terrorist groups, including Hamas and al-Qaeda. According to court filings in the United States, the bank allegedly processed over $100 billion in transactions that were hidden and linked to these groups. The accusations, brought to light by two whistleblowers and filed in a New York court, suggest that Standard Chartered has been involved in money laundering and sanctions busting. The bank, which has previously been shielded by the UK government for similar offenses, is now facing serious allegations that could impact its operations and reputation.
