Les banques israéliennes coupent leurs liens avec l'Autorité palestinienne
La Discount Bank et la Bank Hapoalim exigent que le gouvernement les remplace dans la fourniture de services bancaires correspondants, dans un contexte de craintes croissantes d'implication dans le financement du terrorisme.
Évaluation
Two of Israel's largest banks are moving to sever their financial relationship with the Palestinian Authority, citing concerns over potential terror financing. The banks are pressing the government to take over the provision of correspondent banking services, a shift that could disrupt the flow of funds between Israel and the Palestinian territories. The immediate question is whether the government will step in or allow the banking separation to proceed, which would have significant economic and political consequences.
