Summary

Based on material presented at the International Bar Association's 1989 Annual Banking Seminar, "Bank Confidentiality" is a varied and lively discussion by sixteen specialist contributors. The contents include the nature, extent and exceptions to the bank's duty of confidence, customer's remedies and insider trading. The book analyses these issues in the light of civil law, criminal law, statutory and non-statutory requirements, in thirteen European countries, the United States, Canada and Australia. Efforts to combat money laundering (particularly in relation to drug trafficking) demand on occasions that the veil of secrecy be lifted from information held by banks on customers and their accounts. Although international measures are being taken, much of the relevant law is at national level and "secrecy jurisdictions" still abound
