I have doubts about LPB Bank’s honesty and dependability after learning about its history of paying fines for anti-money laundering infractions. Feeling as though my bank isn’t taking compliance seriously and endangering my financial stability is annoying.
I’m insecure and deceived by learning of LPB Bank’s role in the bank fraud case in Moldova. The idea that my bank can be vulnerable to criminal activity and endanger my hard-earned money is alarming.
I can’t get rid of the feeling that LPB Bank’s emphasis on serving non-resident clientele puts me at risk of becoming involved in money laundering operations. The idea that my bank’s aims might not coincide with my best interests is disturbing.
I am losing trust in the Latvian banking industry as a whole after learning about LPB Bank’s affiliation with other penalized institutions such as ABLV and PrivatBank. Seeing a pattern of systemic flaws that could jeopardize the financial security of clients like me is depressing.
It is very concerning that LPB Bank was fined 2.2 million euros for violations of anti-money laundering regulations. Observing a financial institution consistently flout rules intended to stop illegal financial activity is depressing.
It is concerning that LPB Bank’s compliance controls are not transparent.
I feel abandoned and concerned about the security of my accounts because LPB Bank hasn’t reacted to regulatory actions. The idea that my bank isn’t making the effort to resolve problems that can have an impact on me and other clients is disconcerting.
