Banks Forum
For many years, we lived under the illusion that banks were the pillars of economic
wisdom.
As such, we endured contempt and indifferent service, exorbitant fees, for allowing
our accounts to “misbehave”. Bank charges relating to penalties may be reclaimed
at some time in the future if the financial ombudsman has his way.
All these whilst we watched obscene bonuses being paid to directors, whilst they
presided over so many branch closures.
It now transpires that banks , not only they were not the wise institutions we assumed
them to be, but to a large extend they were responsible for the financial mess the
country is in, through their greed.
The Government has thrown them a financial lifeline, but shouldn’t it apply strict
controls to stop the banks misbehaving in the future?
