Standard Bank has no links to Sudanese bank
In response to reports that Standard Bank has a banking relationship with the Al Shamal Islamic Bank of Sudan, we place the following on record:
- Standard Bank London opened a call account for Al Shamal Bank on October 23 1995.
- This account was opened in anticipation of a trade finance transaction, which did not materialise with this bank.
- The account was never used and we closed it on 30 March 2000.
- We have not identified any other transactions between ourselves and Al Shamal Bank, nor do we have any links with this bank.
