Rona Fairhead was head of the risk committee of HSBC US at the time they were laundering money for groups such as the Mexican Sinaloa drug cartel and "terrorist" groups.[Which?][citation needed]
In 2012, HSBC entered into a "deferred prosecution agreement" in the US, paying $1.9 billion on the basis that for the next 5 years they would not be involved in any further crimes the subject of the DPA, such as money laundering.
HSBC only avoided prosecution in the US through the involvement of George Osborne (Parliamentary Private Secretary Amber Rudd) on the basis that the world would end if HSBC were prosecuted.[2]
