CFTC’s Bart Chilton: Banks Must End ‘Brazen, Flagrant’ Manipulation

The CFTC’s Bart Chilton was on CNBC’s Squawk Box today, and stated that TBTF banks must end their brazen, flagrant manipulation.

Chilton was referring to LIBOR manipulation, and specifically RBS, who has just been fined over $600 million for their role in LIEBORGATE.

While we couldn’t agree more with Mr. Chilton, we are all still waiting to see the CFTC address the alleged silver manipulation in the same manner as the already broken LIBOR manipulation scandal…rather than drag their supposed investigation into its 5th full year. (particularly after Mr. Chilton personally advised the Doc in July 2012 that he expected a resolution of the CFTC’s silver investigation and an announcement by September 2012)

Chilton’s full interview and rant on how the banks must end their brazen, flagrant manipulation is below:
