I'll grant that the Foundation assets being frozen is a disturbing event and that I hope his currently open appeal get's heard in the higher courts and that he wins... otherwise Panama and their courts are sending the wrong message. I guess we'll have to wait for the result.
My experiences with HSBC Panama have been nothing but positive.
