Report Alleges Major Banks Delayed Reporting Suspicious Epstein Transactions

A report by Senator Ron Wyden alleges major Wall Street banks, including JPMorgan Chase and Deutsche Bank, delayed reporting suspicious transactions linked to Jeffrey Epstein. Many transactions were reportedly flagged only after Epstein's 2019 arrest, despite occurring years prior. For example, JPMorgan Chase filed few Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) between 2002-2016, but later identified over 5,000 wire transfers worth $1.3 billion post-arrest, raising questions about financial oversight.
