French bank Credit Agricole will pay a $787 million fine and install an independent monitor to resolve charges it violated US sanctions on Iran and other countries, US regulators announced Tuesday.
Regulators charged Credit Agricole with intentionally mis-labelling thousands of transactions during 2003-2008 to disguise from US regulators payments and transfers from parties in Iran, Sudan, Myanmar and Cuba that were sanctioned under US law.
