Various banks sub­mit­ted docu­ments to U.S. aut­ho­ri­ties that con­tai­ned names, e‑mail addres­ses and tele­pho­ne num­bers of cur­rent and for­mer employees as well as third par­ties. We the­r­e­fo­re car­ri­ed out a fact-fin­ding inve­sti­ga­ti­on at five of the banks con­cer­ned and sub­se­quent­ly issued recom­men­da­ti­ons requi­ring the banks to adopt a more trans­pa­rent approach.
