Unprecedented sanction hits Wells Fargo

Unprecedented sanction hits Wells Fargo

The American bank, at the origin of a vast scandal of opening of fictitious accounts, has no longer the right to grow. This sanction, pronounced by the Fed, is a first for an establishment of this size.

For her last day at the head of the US central bank, Janet Yellen has done well. The woman who will give the keys to the Fed on Saturday announced in a statement Friday a severe and unprecedented sanction against the number one mortgage in the United States, Wells Fargo. The bank, responsible for scandals concerning the creation of fictitious accounts by its employees and practices of loans deemed illegal, is banned any expansion until further notice. Unheard of for a banking behemoth, recognized officials of the regulatory authority at a press conference.

The growth of the assets of the California bank, one of the largest deposit banks in the United States, is frozen. And the condition for lifting this penalty is clear: a change “sufficient” its governance and its internal control system, said the Fed in its statement. This radical decision follows the “very many consumer abuses and other failures” of the bank.

As a reminder, in September 2016, the US Office of Consumer Financial Protection (CFPB) revealed that millions of fake accounts were created without the knowledge of customers between 2011 and 2016. These maneuvers have made it possible to collect commissions and other fees. A total of 3.5 million ghost accounts have been opened. Some employees will say they have been forced to defraud to fulfill the business objectives set by their management. Another scandal: the bank of San Francisco admits that more than half a million of its customers have paid unnecessary insurance premiums on their car loan, between 2012 and 2017. Follow new revelations, by the Wall Street Journal late 2017, of questionable business practices with corporate clients.

“You can not tolerate, in any bank, this pernicious and persistent conduct”

Janet Yellen, Chair of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System

The bank has already been fined $ 185 million. The household was made in the workforce: some 5,300 employees were dismissed. John Stumpf, boss of Wells Fargo, will also leave in October 2016. A year later, four traders specializing in currency brokerage, including the boss of this trading room, are fired. The Fed today announced that four members of the Board of Directors will in turn leave the company, three by April and one by the end of the year. Their identity has not been revealed. “This pernicious and persistent conduct can not be tolerated in any bank, and customers who have been harmed by Wells Fargo are entitled to expect robust and comprehensive reforms so that these abuses do not happen again”, said Janet Yellen, who will replaced by Jerome Powell.

The Fed has also sent very virulent letters to several bank executives. One of them is addressed to the former boss, John Stumpf. “This letter is addressed to you because of the role you played as President during the period in which these problems occurred. You have not ensured that the board is informed in detail of these deficiencies (…) In addition, it does not appear that you have ordered a serious investigation into sales practices or any other failure that you should have been aware at that time, “writes the Fed, which describes the leader’s performance as” an example of ineffective supervision”.

More than 22 billion dollars in profits

The bank, for its part, simply says that it submits to the decision of the Fed and promises to provide a plan to reform the way it operates within 60 days. His problems will not stop there. The threat of heavier sanctions still weighs on her, as reported last December, Donald Trump. “The fines and penalties against Wells Fargo for their malfeasance against their customers and others will not be reversed as was incorrectly reported. They will be maintained and could be significantly increased. I am going to reduce the regulation but reinforce the fines if you are caught cheating”, wrote the American president.

Wells Fargo did not shake that last year, which netted $ 22.18 billion in net profit. Results boosted by an exceptional profit of $ 3.35 billion in the fourth quarter, following various tax measures related to the tax reform voted by the US Congress in December. To deal with its legal disputes, management has provisioned $ 3.25 billion. “If we faced challenges in 2017, we are now a much better company than a year ago and I’m sure this year Wells Fargo will improve again”, said CEO Tim Sloan.
