    Found something interesting though.

    Talos Securities/Selftrade has not got any cases referred to the FOS since 2009 (think that was when the hike the charges) until 30th June 2014. The next report comes out in March 2015 covering period of July-Dec 14.

    Talos does not show up on FCA complain data either, meaning that it received less than 500 complain in a 6 months period.
  • Mr Andrew Bailey deputy governor of the bank of England recently expressed concern about the widespread examples of firms withdrawing services and dropping customers in many parts of the world because of anti-money laundering legislation (AML). Perhaps, this will lead to a review of the “bad for business” anti-tipoff requirements in AML.
    He is also very concerned about banks being heavily fined by US authorities for laundering money.
