Danske Bank Pleads Guilty to Fraud on U.S. Banks in a Multi-Billion Dollar Scheme to Access the U.S. Financial System.
Largest Bank in Denmark Agrees to Forfeit $2 Billion.
Danske Bank A/S (Danske Bank), a global financial institution headquartered in Denmark, pleaded guilty today and agreed to forfeit $2 billion to resolve the United States’ investigation into Danske Bank’s fraud on U.S. banks.
According to court documents, Danske Bank defrauded U.S. banks regarding Danske Bank Estonia’s customers and anti-money laundering controls to facilitate access to the U.S. financial system for Danske Bank Estonia’s high-risk customers, who resided outside of Estonia – including in Russia. The Justice Department will credit nearly $850 million in payments that Danske Bank makes to resolve related parallel investigations by other domestic and foreign authorities. Continues further down.

FAO FOOD AND AGRICULTURAL ORGANIZATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS
There were six thousand people working at FAO in Rome when I visited the headquarter in 1973. And it came to a halt! Today, only four thousand work there, but the world needs more food than ever. FAO was my first assignment to a world organization. Mr. Arne Løken from the Norwegian Department of Food and Nourishment (Nærings-depratementet) invited me over to FAO. We stayed at the same hotel, St’Anselmo on the Aventine Height.
A group from Norway and elsewhere dined together in the charming backyard of the hotel one evening, when Arne Løken, then a man in his sixties, grudgingly pointed out to me that what I just ate, was “Sopa de verdure”, green vegetable soup. I thanked him for the information. The next day I had with me my Tandberg reel-to-reel tape recorder and ran up the steps at FAO to an appointment with a Danish representative. What a day it was, in June of 1973.
Headquarter Viale delle Terme di Caracalla 00153 Rome, Italy
In addition to its Headquarters in Rome, Italy, FAO has an extensive decentralized network of Regional, Subregional, Country and Liaison Offices. FAO is dedicated to recruiting the best staff possible, hiring internationally minded people to carry out its work toward the eradication of hunger. We invite you to explore the opportunities and benefits of working with us.
FAO does not charge a fee at any stage of its recruitment process (application, interview, processing, training, visa or other fee). For more information click here. The Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) is a specialized agency of the United Nations that leads international efforts to defeat hunger.
Our goal is to achieve food security for all and make sure that people have regular access to enough high-quality food to lead active, healthy lives. With over 194 member states, FAO works in over 130 countries worldwide. We believe that everyone can play a part in ending hunger.

The food crisis is reaching its peak at the very time of FAO's World Food Conference. The conference proposes to establish a world food bank ensuring access to around 10 million tonnes of stored grain, to found an International Fund for Agricultural Development, to improve tropical agriculture, and to set up a new food forecasting system that would provide early warning of future crises.
