I had the same issue with roughly the same background and circumstances (25 years with HSBC). I had to sort out W8BEN and FATCA regulations with the US.
Politically Exposed Person = PEP = EU laws – not UK laws = extra compliance costs.
Money Laundering rules have always been tough as is Know Your Client (KYC) and anti-terrorist laws.
Farage was accused of receiving Russian money- Sir Chris Bryant simply made the claim in Parliament and “bam” Farage is now a non-person -with no rights to a bank account.
There are new laws that probably now extend to “hate speech” = anti-“climate crisis” and anti-“WHO”???
Life seems to be becoming unliveable for Mr Farage in the UK. I wonder if HSBC paid him out in cash – I think the “authorities” take a dim view of wandering around with suitcases of the stuff these days.
Mr Farage gace an update on GB News at 7 pm BST here Watch Farage on GB News <substack.com/redirect/e1ca12ee-dd84-4897-9525-22799f44ef72?j=eyJ1Ijoib2JsMjQifQ.daoddOv21e26xYFsW8W-jtjoNA8-phq1EkolSnB3We0>but though his show is scheduled it is not “published” via link on the site as of 9:48 pm BST.
