CROWN AGENTS LTD

Crown Agents originated as a body conducting financial transactions for British colonies. Agents were first appointed in 1749 to transfer and account for grants made to colonies from the British Treasury.[14] These representatives were known unofficially as 'Crown agents' from at least 1758, and were accountable to colonial governments, though selected on the recommendation of the British government.[14] A single body was created in 1833, when the Crown agents' business was consolidated under two Joint Agents General for Crown Colonies with an office of several staff.[14] In 1861 the office was renamed Crown Agents for the Colonies.[14] Crown Agents' responsibilities on behalf of colonial governments included accounting for Treasury grants, purchasing supplies, recruiting certain staff and raising capital on the markets. Crown Agents also oversaw specific colonial projects, such as certain postage stamp issues and some infrastructure construction.[14]

As decolonisation accelerated, the office was renamed Crown Agents for Oversea Governments and Administrations in 1954, and the rules were changed to allow it to take on projects for independent states (Iraq being the first example).[14] Crown Agents expanded its activities to include more international development projects and investment management. The world's first sovereign wealth funds were managed by Crown Agents.[15] Its anomalous status as an autonomous body with close links to government came into question, and in 1979 Crown Agents was brought under government control as a statutory corporation. From 1987, shifting attitudes to state ownership of business and changes in British international development strategy led the government to support full privatisation of Crown Agents. It became a private company in 1997, ending its formal ties to the British government.[14]

RATHBONE BROTHERS LTD

The business was founded by William Rathbone II in 1742 as a Liverpool-based timber trading business.[2] In the 19th century it became a leading trader in cotton from the United States and in 1841 it became the Liverpool agent for the East India Company.

SCHRODERS:

Schroders played a leading role in the privatisations carried out by the UK Government in the 1980s and was to grow dramatically under Winfried Bischoff.[11] Schroders was worth £30 million when he took over as CEO in 1984: yet in 2000 the company sold its investment banking division to Citigroup for £1.3 billion.[12] Citigroup's European investment banking arm traded as Schroder Salomon Smith Barney from 2000 to 2003.[

so instead of answering my question you just post another something another bank did (which again isn't a crime either)

are you just posting random facts about banks and acting like they're crimes or something

SMITH AND WILLIAMSON

PANAMA PAPERS SCANDAL

The company's activities came under scrutiny in 2016, when it was revealed that its employees had managed the Smith & Williamson Blairmore Global Equity Fund since 1997.[13] This fund was founded by David Cameron's (prime minister of the UK from 2010 to 2016) lay father Ian.[14] Earlier in the year, HM Revenue & Customs won a court case against Smith & Williamson, over the treatment of "goodwill payments" made by the firm to a portfolio manager and some team members.[15]
