Grenada has called on
international investigators to look into the operations of an
offshore bank here, reports CANA (April 24, 1999). Prime Minister
Dr. Keith Mitchell said that the Federal Bureau of Investigation and
the British Intelligence Unit have been asked to find out if First
International Bank is involved in any wrong-doing. The decision to
investigate First International Bank comes on the heels of an
article in the Miami-based finance/business newsletter
Offshore Alert
claiming the bank was involved in an international money scam, with
other offshore banks. Offshore Alert
said the offshore companies were attracting millions of dollars in
deposits to a Grenada-based stock exchange under false pretenses. |
