Summary

In the Dublin Circuit Criminal Court, four former Anglo Irish Bank bankers—Willie McAteer (65), John Bowe (52), Peter Fitzpatrick (63), and Denis Casey (56)—have pleaded not guilty to conspiracy charges. They are accused of orchestrating inter‑bank loan transfers between March 1 and September 30, 2008, to inflate Anglo's balance sheet by €7.2 billion, thereby misleading investors. The trial, presided over by Judge Martin Nolan with a jury, continues to examine the alleged financial manipulations.
