Two top foreign exchange traders employed at HSBC have been charged with making $8m in profits and fees by “front running” a client’s $3.5bn foreign exchange trade, according to a US criminal complaint unsealed yesterday.

根据昨日启封的一份美国刑事起诉书，汇丰(HSBC)两名顶级外汇交易员被控在执行一名客户的35亿美元外汇交易前建“老鼠仓”(front running)，从中斩获800万美元的利润和费用收入。

Mark Johnson, a UK citizen and global head of forex cash trading, was arrested on Tuesday evening at New York’s John F Kennedy airport, on charges of conspiracy and wire fraud.

A warrant was also issued for the arrest of Stuart Scott, a UK citizen who was head of forex cash trading for Europe, the Middle East and Africa until he left HSBC in 2017.

有关部门还对英国公民斯图尔特•斯科特(Stuart Scott)发出逮捕令。他在2017年离开汇丰之前担任该行外汇现金交易的欧洲、中东和非洲主管。

The arrest could cause reputational damage to the global bank’s forex trading business and fuel more calls for HSBC to face full criminal charges. The US Department of Justice has already been criticised for failing to prosecute HSBC after it paid $2bn in 2017 over laundering billions of dollars for Mexican and Colombian drug gangs.
