Another Case For Crypto: Bank That Banned Bitcoin Accused Of Money Laundering
Nordea Bank, based in Finland, has been accused of participating in a money laundering scandal. The leading provider of financial services in the Nordic region is said to have accepted illegal money from two Baltic banks. Nordea bank has been implicated for receiving funds from the Estonian branch of Danske Bank and a Lithuanian bank. According to a Reuters report, Nordea did not deny these allegations and promised to work with the authorities concerning these allegations. The claims are a greater irony since in January the bank banned about 31,000 employees from trading in cryptos.
