ANZ to pay $160M over bond deal and customer violations in Australia
Australia's ANZ bank agreed to pay A$240 million in penalties for systemic failures including misconduct in a government bond deal and customer service issues, marking the largest penalty against a single entity by Australian regulators. The bank admitted to misconduct, which included market manipulation and charging dead customers, and plans to spend A$150 million on reforms. The settlement resolves multiple investigations and highlights the need for operational changes at ANZ.
