The Independant has reported that the Irish arm of banking giant HSBC is facing another court action here arising from the bankruptcy of alleged $50bn fraudster Bernard Madoff and his companies.
Kalix Fund Ltd, registered in the British Virgin Islands, is suing HSBC Institutional Trust Services (Ireland) Ltd, Grand Canal Square, Dublin, for $35m given by Kalix for investment purposes to a sub-fund of Thema International Fund plc, and later allegedly passed on to Madoff companies by the HSBC company.
