At best case, they were such incompetent accountants that they didn't know they lent it to a related party.
At worse case, they knew and intentionally concealed this fact from their depositors.
- skippyboxedhero 2y agoYes, they knew. That is why multiple other people got charged. The idea that this was some huge secret was part of the media spin story because: financial company doing financial company things can't be spun the same way (the public are stupid but some people do still remember 2008). Saying "spooky autist stole money" is a much easier sell. They had zero responsibility to disclose this to users of this exchange. Again, completely unregulated financial institution operating in the Bahamas...what could go wrong? Ironically, you have left-wing people who appear to be puzzled about why financial regulation exist.
