How Prince Andrew Helped a Secretive Bank Woo Sketchy Clients
ฝัง

- Embattled royal Prince Andrew used his status to help promote a secretive private bank, whose clients included kleptocrats and alleged criminals.
The Queen of England's favorite son developed a close relationship with the bank's owner, financier David Rowland, whose background could not be more different from his own.
This is the story of how these two vastly different men worked together to collect sketchy clients for a private Luxembourg bank.

Also this story is just a hit piece of Haviland because he's a working class boy. All the big banks deal with far shadier clients but get away with it because they run the show. The rest of the banks in Luxembourg are a cesspit!
Epstein's pal or did Bloomberg forget that .
Prince Peter File.
After being thrown on the streets in London with my luggages and papers blocked in Christopher Hotell in Eaton/ Windsor May day 1992, I lost 300.000 English £ invested in properties in Norway because of being stranded with all cards cut off., I am interesting in all financial fraud from ny time there .Gro Vera Neste Christiansen. Norway.
He wooed more than just sketchy clients
That’s called statutory r*pe not wooing
why did they do a documentary on him if he wooed sketchy clients? Why dont they accuse him of the crimes he committed? This is propaganda bro.
Don't think there was any wooing going down, just his buddies Jeff and Ghislain kidnapping and coercing.
@@microfarming8583 that doesnt mean the prince did it. and jeff wasnt kidnapping. the women went along willingly. try and keep up
@@davidanalyst671 BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA😂😂😂😂😂😂 I have some reeeally nice property in Florida, are you interested?
This mans criminal depth will most likely never surface
down with the monarchy!
And despite all of his revolting and criminal behavior, the man still struts around Buckingham palace as if nothing had ever happened.
don't forget that the queen and the crown protect this man from being held accountable. abolish the monarchy.
@@stipebalenovic6497 yep. They don't even have the profits of that land, it's parliament that gets the money and the local municipalities manage most of it. It would not bring down their wealth at all because they don't even get money from their land.
Burync zäh bönettez v v ?
@@wyewonn Replace the i, what does that give you?
@@stipebalenovic6497 yep. take all their land.
@@stipebalenovic6497 the difference between the monarchy and any other landowner is that we, the people, pay for them directly with our taxes. it's not theft if we confiscate something we already pay for. Buckingham Palace is currently receiving hundreds of millions of pounds worth of renovations courtesy of the taxpayer, and we have no choice in the matter.
i'd also like to point out the irony in claiming that it would be stealing their lands when the monarchy has been complicit in the pillaging and colonisation of other nations' wealth for hundreds of years.
also, you mention the "real world" - i like to believe that the real world is (or at least, should be) based on meritocracy and democracy, notions at complete odds with the idea of a hereditary monarchy.
The more one sees and hears stories like this, the more one thinks the current establishment has to go.
GL with that
We should've had a revolution a long, long time ago.
Even after the MP's expenses scandal, no one could be held to account. Any MPs that were held-up for scrutiny were nothing more than tokenism to throw-off the public clamour for prosecution and punishment.
It's funny how the Royal Family is so vocal on the Prince Harry & Meghan Markle situation but is so mum on the sketchy & probably illegal things that Prince Andrew has gotten himself entangled with over the past years..
The media has been very vocal about Prince Harry & Meghan. The Royal Family has been the opposite of vocal, total omerta.
That’s because the monarch mafia are narcissist bullies and are using Duke and Duchess Sussex to divert the attention from Andrew. And they wanted to keep William and Kate happy who weren’t happy that Harry and Megan were more popular
The royal family has been quiet on Harry and Megan, your statement is fakse
They are doing it on purpose.
Makes sense... They will comment on Harry and Megan not just because they don't like her but because it's the perfect distraction from other family members and their issues like Prince Andrew
'The Dodgy Bank, The Paedophile & The Runaway Prince'. It can't get worse than this, can it?
The more I hear about this Prince Andrew guy, the less I care for him
Apparently he's the most arrogant royal. Quite narcissistic.
The worst part is the hypocrisy
Wooing sketchy clients & underage girls geez what else has Andrew been up to
Drugs
Loads.But you will never find out. They RULE us. We don't matter.
Dodgy Andy, a few skeletons in his backyard.
He's always afforded so much latitude. There should be no doubt as to how he comes to know all these 'rough characters' - he is one himself!
Only a few! You are way to kind😅😅😅😅
Randy Andy.
He didn’t even break a sweat ;)
Bravo! 👍🏿
Ha Ha !
Its time we leave royalties in the past where they belong.
and you're who to say that?
@@pedroSilesia Everyone should be equal under the law and have equal opportunities at the moment they are born, regardless of which family they are born into. Don't you agree?
They created England.Know your history
This Rowland guy sounds like someone you'd see in a Guy richie movie :D
Ain’t wrong tbf
He is a very shady creature been sniffing around for years looking for the next corupt deal hiding behind wealth and status its disgusting lol
You guys just hit it out the park, again! Brilliant video 😎👍
No matter how elevated you are, you are ultimately the (low) company you keep
Lol prince Andrew is always making a full of the english crown
*fool, not full
@FSB He makes a full fool of the British monarchy.
@@michaelpower4372 they are a bunch of fools
Harry and Meghan was just a smokescreen, now back to Andrew!
It really makes me angry that Buckingham Palace could easily prove or disprove Prince Andrew's alibi but refuse to do so.
Why do you think they are doing nothing? I think maybe if they say anything it could be spun what ever they say, so if they don’t say anything they can’t have their words twisted
@@johnscan9928 no they just know the alibi won’t hold up to scrutiny. The whole family is a bunch of criminals
@@user-uv3li8tk4r yes like the saying “there’s no smoke without fire” they probably have a special team they call up for coverups 😂
Andrew... 2 years since that interview and the story has been buried...
Well, what do you think should happen? IMO Andrew should put on his big boy pants, and not hid behind his mommys skirts, and go talk to the FBI. Until then, I think he is getting just the right punishment: Not being able to do anything. He can´t go out and take a regular job like you and me, he can´t work for the Royal Family, he´s stuck, because he is hiding behind mommys skirts and his title
@@LouiseAndersen1991 Such a shame that's now changed
What amazes me is that this did not even make a huge story in the UK press. Why not?!?!?
because the UK press are gatekeepers for the criminals.......
Still confused why a modern developed country has a monarchy in 2021.
My understanding is that they have so entangled themselves into British life that excising them would be more trouble, cost and effort than it would be worth.
I am confused as to why so many Americans have seemingly fallen in love with British royalty. You guys had the right idea when you kicked them out on their arse ~240 years ago. If someone is one of those woke anti-privilege, anti- power folks and you adore the royals you truly are a confused one.
They have been found to be beneficial for tourism purposes, potentially attracting more foreign money into the country than what it costs to sustain the Royal family, so the people have kept them around.
@@Blashmack ‘the people’ have nothing to do with any of this mr. voices
@@jesseberdowski3148 please, call me Sir Vague
Being from the UK, my experience is that the majority of people are pro-monarchy, or at least very pro-Queen Elizabeth. People like the uniting force of the Queen and I think it does well to keep prime ministers in their place unlike in the US.
And it's only andrew? No connection whatsoever with the rest of the 'family'? Oh c'mon!
I seriously wonder what the Queen thinks about all this stuff that her son Prince Andrew has gotten himself involved in. Spoiled children tend to grow up into selfish, wicked, and prideful adult brats.
Stood near as he played golf, early 90s. An obvious spoiled brat.
No he didn't because he couldn't sweat and he doesn't go to parties and he's too honourable.
What?!
Three Pinnochios there!
When is he going to Jail???
The Firm REALLY DROPPED THE BALL WITH ANDREW... Tragically
Tragically! 😅😅😅😅
We need a BQ take on the Epstein mysteries .
This is main stream media from a BILLIONAIRE so...no lol
Oh everyone knows..... Only the peasants are out of the loop.
yeah right... Bloomberg was probably in on the whole deal
Just binge True Anon
@@stipebalenovic6497 there's clearly more than what meets the eye to that story....
Some say Epstein was affiliated with CIA
in keeping with his character innit
Amazing content. Keep it coming!
The entire Royal family are gangsters. Andrew’s the scape’.
Why is Andrew a scapegoat? The whole monarchy has a history of corrupt practices and then amend the laws to suit them or make themselves above the law.
@@chrisdovrik2894 That's complete Bull 👎👎👎
@@espr7564 so Why is Andrew blocked from the public then if its bull.
@@chrisdovrik2894 you have trouble understanding what a monarchy is .
I love the brief. Keep it up!
"The son of a scrap metal dealer to robbing shoulders with royalities...." That statement wasn't a filler speech, it exhibits the extreme disdain and loath Middle Class and Upper Class have for people, usually people from working class background/profession, who've "pull themselves up by their bootstraps" (so to speak).
it was so snobby
Think you're reading into it a bit too much m8
Just come back from US and there is education and building your own success
Didnt scrap metal dealers those daysake bank?
Agreed!! Bloomberg clearly has an agenda against this guy and his bank . I think a lot of the story here is old news re hashed
2:55 if he was a helicopter pilot, who’s flying, what he calls, „his helicopter” at 2:56... what a scam
I really thought he was giving a video VOICE OVER but was it REMOTE CONTROLLED then
Great as usual.
Buckingham Palace is getting terrible with their responses - they used to be experts at bouncing the blame. When you use the words "the aim was" you are literally saying from the get-go that he didn't do what he was supposed to do.
Excellent documentary
They are never held accountable of anything, prince Andrew will never be held accountable.
Are yes the prince of Darkness . I was wondering how long it would be before he got our attention once again .
This was the business lessons Andrew was talking about during his Epstein interview.
Lock him up.
How does an honest and dignified woman and Queen literally endorse the amoral behavior of her son throughout his life?
Honest and dignified ??? Lol
The apple never falls far from the tree, she was as wicked and dishonest as him, just more street wise on trying to hide her dirty deeds. Bunch of bloody Nazis, I think the Germans won the war as we give them the bloody family jewels
Great content keep it coming!
Dodgy Andy joins the Dodgy Brothers of the Dodgy Bank...
Amazing tale.
Great story thanks
Can’t wait for this interview!
Wow very informative and educational
Interesting that he was reported to have faught bravely in the falklands war, I was told by someone serving on the same ship that when the sirens went off warning of imminent attack he was bundled into the helicopter to hover a few feet above the sea until it was all over. Apparently he stole the items collected on shore, trophies of war, like a prop or bell or something from a ship or downed aircraft, which were traditionally kept by the fighting servicemen, and hung them in the officers mess instead, where the average serviceman couldn’t see them. He was described as arrogant, rude, cowardly, untalented and nobody liked him. Conversely the same person told me that Prince Charles was respected for his ability. So this shady stuff doesn’t surprise me at all.
Did he woo them with a toddler on a silver platter? Lol
Bloomberg talking about sketchy Kleptocrats lol.
Exactly what a joke
It all started on a cold rainy night at a pizza express in Woking.
When you are accustomed to a particular level of lifestyle you may do anything to maintain it. Prince Andrew knows his name opens doors for him and for other people. It's all he has. A life of charity work did not appeal to him.
I love the sound of Pizzicato with well-produced accompanying intrigue! Subscribed 🏆🇬🇧
No suprises , Prince Andrew is 1 of 3 trustees to the biggest bank in the world (Bank of Akaroa)
Thanks
This shows that they'll only go after them once they sort of have to, when the crimes start to become too public to ignore
Two entities who are long overdue obsolete. Banks and royals. The only Royals needed are the Jersey Royals.
Get these crooks Bloomberg
Nothing ever goes anywhere,they are untouchables.
You will not read much about it on the British tabloids, they are more interested in reporting about Kate’s new dresses and how an accomplished photographer (aham) she is.
Don't look at Andrew; Look at that America Meghan, she wants to be Queen with "the Spare"? Yeah, yeah. 😏...That's the story we will feed the British people... They will believe anything!! They will pay for Andrew's security!🤣🤣
I have that book now. So much a page turning.
Andrew was just doing the dirty work of the monarch, you think the Queen didn't know?
1:12 THOR is a *journalist* now
...you need your eyes tested....
The former Prince always runs to form 😂
This should be the least of his worries. What a creep.
Sketchy clients is one way of putting it
Meanwhile, reclining on a lawn chair whilst sipping Moet, Prince Andrew smiles and paraphrases Tony Stark: "Let's be honest, this isn't the worst thing you've caught me doing"...
Underrated comment.
Great reporting work, what is the name of the track in the intro?? Cheers 🤓
Now do you blame Harry for stepping out of this mess of s family
Roland sure looks like he'd fun to party with. 🎉
What is this called in the criminal court?
why do they have to film eyelids & close up mouth shots in interviews.
it's like watching a child playing with a camcoder
Wouldn't have thought he'd be smart enough for any 'dodgy dealings' with banks ?
He's not lol lol people in the shadows and they are incompetent 2 lol lol
Andrew, His Royal Highness, The Crook, The Creep, etc., etc. ….
Surprise surprise. Prince Andrew. Show me your friends & I’ll tell u who u are
Tiny banks… only a billion in assets
served a whole 2 days bravely in Faulkland war. great big whoopee
Wealthy and can't get a loan...
...how does that happen?
Criminals looking to launder their money
The corruption is real!
No one is surprised. This is what we have come to expect from the super rich and powerful
Watching on 1.25 speed feels right.
Knew the comments were going to be on point for this one
they are only called criminals when they own less than a million pounds.
Crooks and predators do business with crooks and predators
"Favourite Son"? He's not now.
An American oligarch’s news outlet outing a British oligarch’s sketchy dealings. Taking into account all of the sketchy American oligarchs you’ve ignored it makes one wonder what the real agenda is.
The royals should stick to cutting the ribbon at new supermarket openings - they have no other value
Do you see value in cutting ribbons?
In your opinion sure. Its wrong but who cares lol.
Why is that guy holding a takeaway coffee ?
What the point of that , what is going on in his brain that makes him feel it’s necessary to show his cardboard coffe cup during the interview ?
Hmmmmmm? Oh sorry just noticed it’s tea ! My bad
You need to get out more my friend!
When I first read the title I wondered who this reclusive & secretive guy named "Bank Woo".
Bloomberg and all its NPC's all enjoying the mud together, bless. 🤣
Well, the Royal family will certainly have a reaction to this release of information won’t they?
They’ll go full ostrich on this one.
In the same way I am deeply sceptical of the bigger than life reputation of other financial institutions of Britain's name as the hub of lnternational banking
Andrew is one good reason not to have a monarchy.
@@louiebeatty8837 hahahaha
Has he sued ? Probably not
If not , it’s ALL true .
Man, is there anything even remotely redeemable at all about Prince Andrew? Geez.
If not in line to the throne 🤷🤦😂🤣
So what - so called reputable banks rip customers off - they are all self serving.
Five pounds for being a quid overdrawn. Another tenner for a letter to tell you that you owe a fiver - and 20 for not replying straight away, possibly because you couldn’t get through the 17 security checks at the call centre.
My friend used to collect 20 pence coins in a large jar and when the jar was full he would take it to his bank to deposit. He's had to stop as he got the third degree! You couldn't make this stuff up. As if someone would money launder by converting it into small denomination coins and attempting to deposit it in a bank! I can just see a Russian Oligarch or African dictator converting their ill gotten gains into coinage! Haha!
In reality the latter are welcomed in London which has the reputation of being the money laundering capital of the world.
