Official narrative
Banks provide financial services and products which people and companies need. They have been given the right to produce money from thin air by governments, who cannot be trusted with this power.
CIA Banks
The Bank of Credit and Commerce International or BBCI was a financial organisation which was protected and used by the CIA. Kevin Ryan summarised it as a "CIA-linked terrorist financing network".[1] Peter Dale Scott wrote in The American Deep State that it is "clear that throughout the 1980s the American deep state in Washington was involved with BCCI and protected it."[2]
2008 Crisis
The Global Financial Crisis, also known as the 2008 Financial Crisis, was systemic event that shook the global financial system during the period from mid-2007 to late-2008.
Many financial institutions (including Goldman Sachs, Bear Stearns & Lehman Brothers) that had been responsible for precipitating the crisis were labeled as "too big to fail" by Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson[3] and were provided emergency funding in the billions of dollars by American tax payers via the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008.
This event saw the vertical integration of many financial institutions by JP Morgan Chase as many failing financial institutions were bought up by the company.[4]
US Safety deposit boxes
What's So Bad About Big Banks? - NowThis Originals |
"There are an estimated 25 million safe deposit boxes in America, and they operate in a legal gray zone within the highly regulated banking industry. There are no federal laws governing the boxes; no rules require banks to compensate customers if their property is stolen or destroyed."[5]
Funding for "terrorism"
Widely reported to promote "terrorism",[6] to profit from money laundering, banks are also recported to be reliant upon the illegal drug trade.[7][8]
2023 Banking crisis
Why Wealthy Americans Love UBS, The Secretive Swiss Banking Giant - CNBC |
Silicon Valley Bank recorded an increase of its deposit holdings during the COVID-19 pandemic, when the tech sector experienced a period of growth. In 2021, it purchased long-term Treasury bonds to capitalise on the increased deposits. However, the current market value of these bonds decreased as the Federal Reserve raised interest rates to curb US inflation surge that started after the Covid-19 lockdown and was further stimulated by the oil price hiking caused by Russian sanctions and sanctions against Russia.[9]
Signature Bank fell after a steep fall of crypto money in the accounts.[10] In March 2023, Credit Suisse was taken over by its larger rival UBS in a deal worth more than $3 billion.[11] UBS sealed the takeover in less than three months, a tight timetable given its scale and complexity, in a race to provide greater certainty for both clients and employees. The deal, however, exposed two myths created by the ccm in the 2010s - namely, that Switzerland is a steady, predictable investment destination and that banks' problems would no longer hit taxpayers. "It was supposed to be the end of too-big-to-fail and state-led bailout," according to Jean Dermine, professor of banking and finance at INSEAD, adding that the episode showed this central reform after the 2008 global financial crisis had not worked.

Josef Ackermann | “Maybrit Illner: Mr. Ackermann, you are also head of the International Banking Federation. Couldn't you just have made such a demand to all your colleagues who came out of this crisis really clean? Josef Ackermann: I think the same would have happened to me as it did to Mr Herrhausen. [...]” | Josef Ackermann Maybrit Illner | 13 May 2010 |
George Carlin | “Now, to balance the scale, I'd like to talk about some things that bring us together, things that point out our similarities instead of our differences. 'Cause that's all you ever hear about in this country. It's our differences. That's all the media and the politicians are ever talking about—the things that separate us, things that make us different from one another. That's the way the ruling class operates in any society. They try to divide the rest of the people. They keep the lower and the middle classes fighting with each other so that they, the rich, can run off with all the fucking money! Fairly simple thing. Happens to work. You know? Anything different—that's what they're gonna talk about—race, religion, ethnic and national background, jobs, income, education, social status, sexuality, anything they can do to keep us fighting with each other, so that they can keep going to the bank! You know how I define the economic and social classes in this country? The upper class keeps all of the money, pays none of the taxes. The middle class pays all of the taxes, does all of the work. The poor are there just to scare the shit out of the middle class. Keep 'em showing up at those jobs.” | George Carlin | |

Bronson Cutting | “The fight against the abolition of the credit power of private banks will be a savage one, for their power as a unit is without equal in the country. Knowing this is why I think back to the events of March 4, 1933, with a sick heart. For then, with even the bankers thinking the whole economic system had crashed to ruin, the nationalization of banks by President Roosevelt could have been accomplished without a word of protest. It was President Roosevelt’s great mistake. Now the bankers will make a mighty struggle.” | Bronson Cutting | |
Jörg Haider | “What we need is protection from ruinous products, because in reality the banks are a giant mafia which has poisoned the whole world with these products. Everything was transported away from America so to speak and today nobody wants to be responsible. It will be played out again at the expense of the little man, he will lose jobs, he will lose his income. The big men are certainly not going to be punished.” | Jörg Haider | 2008 |
IGO | “Well after Argentina went bust in 1991 it offered most of its creditors about thirty-five cents on the dollar. About ninety percent of these people accepted that but some of them didn't and they tried to sue the bank In Switzerland because that's where its headquarters, but the Swiss courts and I think also the Swiss Federal Council have said that the bank is founded by an international treaty. It is inviolable: it cannot be sued.” | 2018 | |
Regulatory capture | “Probably most people would agree that the people paid by the U.S. government to regulate Wall Street have had their difficulties. Most people would probably also agree on two reasons those difficulties seem only to be growing: an ever-more complex financial system that regulators must have explained to them by the financiers who create it, and the ever-more common practice among regulators of leaving their government jobs for much higher paying jobs at the very banks they were once meant to regulate. Wall Street's regulators are people who are paid by Wall Street to accept Wall Street's explanations of itself, and who have little ability to defend themselves from those explanations.” | Michael Lewis | September 2014 |
