US lawmakers unveil bill to hold Wall Street’s ‘Epstein-connected’ bosses to account
U.S. legislators have introduced a bill aimed at increasing accountability for senior Wall Street executives with ties to the late financier Jeffrey Epstein. The proposal follows criticism from Senator Elizabeth Warren, who faulted Barclays for its handling of questions about a former chief’s relationship with the convicted sex offender. The legislation would expand oversight and potential penalties for firms linked to Epstein.
