London traders 'face arrest' over £4bn bank loss
US agents to seek extradition of two former JPMorgan Chase bankers accused of cover-up
London's reputation as a global financial centre is poised to be tarnished further after it emerged
last night that two former employees of a major US bank are suspected of concealing a near £4bn
trading loss from the heart of its UK operation in Canary Wharf.
Two former employees of JPMorgan Chase are expected to be arrested in London this week,
according to US reports. Federal investigators said the men are suspected of trying to cover up
a $6bn trading loss last year. The loss, disclosed in 2012, was an embarrassment for the US's
biggest bank and raised concerns about risk-taking on Wall Street four years after the financial crisis.
A federal grand jury voted to indict both men on criminal fraud charges, according to The New
York Times. Reports linked the charges to evidence provided by Bruno Iksil, a trader at
JPMorgan in London who placed the large bets that led to the loss. Mr Iksil, who was dubbed the
London Whale, is not the subject of any investigation the reports said.

Lord Stephen facing questions over wind farm 'empire'
A Liberal Democrat peer was today facing questions over his support for wind farms in the
House of Lords after it was reported he is a director of 10 renewable energy companies.
Lord Stephen facing questions over wind farm 'empire'
Lord Stephen has come under scrutiny over his links with wind farm companies
Lord Stephen of Lower Deeside has repeatedly spoken in favour of wind energy, warning
ministers they must get behind the industry or risk £100 billion of investment, and tabled
amendments to the Government's Energy Bill.
His Lords speeches have started by referring to his register of interests, which states that he
is the director of an Aberdeen-based company called Renewable Energy Ventures (REV) Ltd.
However, documents lodged with Companies House show there are actually nine firms in the
REV network, seven of which have been incorporated within the past five months.
The former Scottish Deputy First Minister is also director of a company called Pilot Offshore
Renewables, also formed in April, which is not mentioned in his register of interests.
House of Lords rules state that Members must be "especially cautious in deciding whether to
speak or vote" in debates that relate to their private business interests.

MPs could be allowed to submit receipt-free expenses claims
MPs could be allowed to submit expenses claims which are not backed up by receipts to make the
system more streamlined.
The idea - which could prompt fears that it will encourage abuses similar to those seen in the 2009
expenses scandal - has been suggested by John Bercow, the Speaker of the House of Commons,
in a letter to the chairman of the Independent Parliamentary Standards Authority.
