巴克萊為17.7億債務失誤支付1950萬賠償




巴克萊銀行就177億美元債務出售失誤達成1950萬美元和解

紐約(路透社) – 巴克萊銀行(LON:BARC)同意支付1950萬美元,了結在曼哈頓提起的股東訴訟。這些股東指控這家英國銀行在出售超過監管機構允許的177億美元債務時涉及證券詐騙。

一項初步和解的提案已於週二在曼哈頓聯邦法院提交,需獲得美國地區法官凱瑟琳·波克·法伊拉(Katherine Polk Failla)的批准。

股東們聲稱,他們因依賴巴克萊的保證而遭受損失,該保證聲稱其政策和程序符合監管標準,並且該銀行對強有力的內部控制充滿承諾。

巴克萊在2022年3月承認,在過去五年中,它出售的結構性和交易所交易票據超過美國監管機構授權的208億美元達152億美元。

四個月後,該銀行將超售金額增加至177億美元,並提出回購超過的部分,並為過度發行設立了15.9億英鎊(約20.1億美元)的準備金。

巴克萊還重述了其2021年的財務報表,並將過度發行描述為“完全可以避免”和“自我造成”的問題。

根據週二提交的法庭文件,巴克萊仍然否認與該和解相關的任何不當行為。

在二月份,法伊拉拒絕駁回該訴訟,表示股東可以證明巴克萊高層,包括前首席執行官傑斯·斯塔利(Jes Staley),存在“可行的魯莽行為”。

她還指出,雖然巴克萊的保證聽起來很普通,但它們可以支持股東的索賠,因為該銀行的債務銷售追蹤系統“並不僅僅是表現不佳——它根本不存在”。

該訴訟涵蓋了2021年2月18日至2023年2月14日之間持有巴克萊美國存託憑證的投資者。

評論

這一和解的結果不僅反映了巴克萊在債務發行過程中的重大失誤,還揭示了金融機構在遵循監管要求方面的脆弱性。股東的信任受到重創,這不僅對巴克萊自身的聲譽造成了影響,也對整個金融業的信心造成了打擊。這一事件強調了金融機構在內部控制和合規性方面的必要性,尤其是在當前監管環境日益嚴格的背景下。

此外,這一案例也突顯了股東在面對公司管理層不當行為時的權利和潛在的法律救濟途徑。隨著投資者對透明度和負責任管理的要求不斷提高,金融機構未來必須更加謹慎,確保其操作符合所有規範,以避免類似的法律風險和財務損失。

Create a very realistic, cinematic image of a woman, with 100% of her original facial features maintained from the provided image. Do not alter the face, focusing on realistic details of the facial structure, eyes, eyebrows, nose, mouth, and expression. The lower left corner of the image features the Facebook logo and the text Nomahtan Kung.
Makeup: sharp Asian-style eyebrows, sharp Cat Eye eyeliner, and gradient red lipstick
​Her lips are parted slightly, revealing a hint of teeth, and are coated in a glossy, natural-toned red lipstick that catches the light, giving them a luscious appearance. The subtle lines and contours of her philtrum and cupid's bow are visible. with the subtle texture of skin visible. Wears a necklace with the text Kunika and other small matching accessories, such as earrings or a wrist bracelet. 4. Gamcheon Culture Village – Busan (Late Afternoon)
The tourist man in a colorful winter knit sweater, light down jacket, dark pants, and boots standing at a viewpoint overlooking the pastel-colored hillside houses of Gamcheon Culture Village. Cool winter light, cinematic depth. Main focus on the vibrant architecture, man secondary. Create a photorealistic and highly detailed image featuring the attached image walking confidently down a modern city street, accompanied by Jason Statham, Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson, and Jason Momoa acting as bodyguards.

John Wick (Keanu Reeves) is walking just beside or slightly behind the subject, holding an umbrella over him to shield from light rain.

The subject should be the central figure, wearing stylish casual clothing — like a fitted jacket, dark jeans, and sunglasses — exuding calm authority and cool charisma.

Statham, The Rock, and Momoa are dressed in black tactical-style suits, maintaining alert, protective stances, scanning the surroundings like professional bodyguards. John Wick wears his signature black suit and tie, looking composed as he holds the umbrella.

The setting is a downtown urban street with wet pavement reflecting city lights, parked luxury cars, and paparazzi in the background snapping photos.

The photo should look like a real paparazzi shot — slightly off-angle, mid-step motion blur, with realistic lighting and reflections.

Lighting: natural daylight with overcast skies, reflections from wet concrete, realistic shadows, subtle raindrops on the umbrella and clothing.

Camera realism: crisp detail on facial features and clothing textures, shallow depth of field emphasizing the group, with lens flare or light bloom for authenticity.

Mood & tone: grounded, cinematic, and stylish — feels like a moment from a celebrity entourage photo or action-movie press capture, taken with an iPhone by paparazzi.

Style: ultra-realistic, documentary-style street photography with modern cinematic sharpness.
