Ex-Rabobank Trader Pleads Guilty in Libor-Rigging Probe



Bloomberg reported that a former Rabobank senior trader pleaded guilty in New York to conspiring to manipulate a benchmark interest rate tied to trillions of dollars of securities to benefit his trading positions, the U.S. said.

Bloomberg said Paul Robson, who worked at Rabobank’s London office and made the bank’s yen LIBOR submissions, pleaded guilty to a single conspiracy count in Manhattan federal court.

Bloomberg noted that according to a Justice Department statement, the ex-trader is scheduled to be sentenced in 2017.
