HSBC Redirects "Young Entrepreneurs" To Porn Site
HSBC is having a difficult time getting out of its own way. The bank, which, as we noted in February, is second only to US real estate when it comes to the enabling of tax evasion and parking of criminal money and generally catering to shady offshore oligarchs, dictators, rock stars, monarchs, and even outright criminals, saw a list surface earlier this year which showed that its 2007-era Swiss arm helped “royal families, convicted cocaine dealers, ambassadors, terror suspects, entertainers, elected officials, corporate executives, and athletes” hide money from tax authorities.
While no one was surprised at the bank’s conduct, the report was, as Bloomberg noted at the time, a more “comprehensive list of accounts associated with more than 100,000 people and legal entities from more than 200 nations, ranging from the legitimate to the illicit.” Shortly thereafter, CEO Stuart Gulliver was sucked into the scandal after it was revealed that he was the beneficial owner of an account registered to an anonymous Panamanian company where he may have sheltered nearly $8 million. Meanwhile, The Telegraph’s top political commentator quit, after suggesting that a £250 million loan from HSBC had made the paper hopelessly biased in its coverage of the bank.
As embarrassing (or perhaps “inconvenient” is the more appropriate term) as all of that is, and as annoying as it probably is to have your highly profitable money laundering business interfered with by party-crashing tax authorities who don’t want you doing business with Mexican drug cartels or nations which may be suffering under international sanctions, the latest HSBC faux pas may be the most amusing yet, because as The South China Morning Post reports, anyone attempting to access the home of HSBC’s Young Entrepreneur Awards (which ceased to exist in 2011), was recently redirected to a porn site. Here’s more:
Those accessing the page for HSBC’s defunct Young Entrepreneur Awards – originally displayed in a section of hsbc.com.hk – would be surprised or embarrassed to find a site showing images of women in provocative poses or having sex.
The awards were scrapped in 2011 and the porn site took over the address after organisers allowed its registration to expire.
A banking source said it was “a blunder” in which the hyperlink’s URL, which originally connected to a third-party webpage, was transferred to the pornography business.
* * *
The bank did apologize in a statement and assured the public that it wasn’t affiliated with the third party site “in any way.”
So Mexican drug cartels and terrorists are welcome, but porn site operators will apparently have to take their business elsewhere.

Everytime I see their bullshit ads at JFK in the jetway heading to the plane, I want to put bumperstickers over them that says Bullshit.
Ever seen 'The Honorable Jon Corzine' name on the plaque showing the board members of the 911 memorial? Made me sick.

Nothing on nailgun safety or avoidance of 9.8m/sec^2 exposure?
Once you get a job there they teach you advanced money laundering, fraud, racketeering and how to interact with drug cartel kingpins.
And once you graduate you can go to Goldman Sucks to get your PHD in raping and pillaging . . .
HSBC, the poster child for precious metals manipulation and "custodian" of GLD.
It could have been worse for the bank: The link could have redirected them to Zerohedge.com

Sex sells. The Young Entrepreneurs can all set up porn sites.

I-O-I + I-O
..... still leaves room for at least one more before it starts to resemble a Clinton family reunion....... and you can cross link the triad with the bipole to get a little chick chick nipple action if my math is correct......
Waitaminute!
Why is that whore in the picture facing the same way as her butt is facing?????
Oh, ok, I get it now - she's not just a whore, but she's a twisted whore!
Good analogy for a bank.....
..... I didn't think the girl represented the bank..... actually I thought she represented how the bank sees us...... I guess like any art form it's all subject to the interpretation of the viewer.....
and in the interest of disclosure it is very common for FEA chicks to be extremely flexible with an incredible ability to multitask...... it's like being mauled by an insatiable puma...........
