Four senior bankers pleaded not guilty to conspiracy to mislead investors at Dublin Circuit Criminal Court, reported on 10 February 2016. They were accused of using interbank loans to make Anglo Irish Bank appear €7.2 billion more valuable than it was.

The trial heard evidence about an alleged “green jersey agenda”, with banks working together during the 2008 financial crisis. The proceedings continued before Judge Martin Nolan and a jury.
