So was the 2nd World War all for nothing?

- a handful of fund managers who stay in the west can be arrested within an hour of such decision taken, you can't do that to a market force.



I think so.

And it is very good time now to negotiate some real special deal too.

You must be the most stupid MD in the world
Do you think laws to criminalise certain acts can be enacted in a hour?

Honestly, here's my sincere advice: stop posting crap on here, your stupidity could be clocked by a prospective customer/investor.

Do you think laws to criminalise certain acts can be enacted in a hour?

I said arrest - criminalising might take a few sessions in Parliament so long as those who vote are not bankrolled by people who are about criminalised.

Market manipulation is already a criminal offence, so is money laundering and tax evasion - one just needs to dig deep and I am sure plenty of interesting info will be found.

All it requires is political will to stop this tulip that hurts all businesses apart from handful of hedge funds that make record profits at the expense of everybody else.

Seeing as you seem to want to demonstrate your stupidity to the world, I'll go along with that

How can you arrest people if no law is broken?
Or are you saying laws are being broken by hedge funds but this is being ignored?
And if so have you any evidence?

You really are an unimaginative cretin aren't you. It's easy, you trump up charges and send them to the gulag.

Terrorist suspects can be arrested on suspicion and held for up to 30 days without being charged

Whether the law is broken only detailed study of what exactly they do will help answer - say put up a whistleblower award of say £10-20 mln plus witness protection outside of UK for life subject to successful conviction: that would get things moving pretty quickly.

I stand corrected.
As I've said you can take the boy out of the Soviet Union but you can't take the Soviet Union out of the boy.
One of the signs of intelligence is that you are able to think yourself out of your upbringing.
AtW is an epic fail in this regard.

Your upbringing must have been real bad

So to summarise, as MD of a UK firm, you believe that is mass criminality going on in financial institutions in the UK?

As an MD of a UK firm that pays UK taxes to cover bailout of financial institutions in the UK I believe that criminal charges should be brought against failed directors of such firms that required bailouts and all substantial transactions should be examined to be sure they don't break the law.

A good start is here:

Goodwin may face criminal charges over RBS accountancy failings | News | Money Marketing

Assuming there will be actual charges which I certainly hope will follow. Just for you read up the following:

"The Companies Act says directors must be able to “disclose their company’s financial position with reasonable accuracy at any time. They must also ensure “adequate record is made and retained… of any expected loss, liability, contingency material to the assessment of the current position.”"

How many directors of UK banks are 100% certain that they know their financial position given all those crazy derivatives, insurance and all other tulip they use that makes whole thing totall non-transparent?

What about treating tulip subprime stuff as AAA debt, is this not a false accounting?

As far as this thread goes AtW, I'd stop there if I were you. You're getting painted into a corner and beginning to sound like an idiot, which I'm sure you are not.
