LIVE BLOG: MFSA Answers Crucial Questions on Pilatus Bank In Daphne Caruana Galizia Public Inquiry

The public inquiry into the assassination of journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia continues today, with Malta’s Financial Services Authority (MFSA) set to answer crucial questions with regards to Pilatus Bank.
During his testimony, former MFSA Chairman Joe Bannister often passed the buck onto Marianne Scicluna, who heads the supervisory arm of the MFSA.
He said she was the one responsible for all supervisory duties, especially when it came towards Pilatus Bank and Nexia BT.
“Better ask Marianne Scicluna,” Bannister repeatedly told the public inquiry when faced with challenging questions.
Andre Camilleri, a former MFSA employee who issued Pilatus Bank’s license, will also testify. Camilleri currently works at the European Central Bank. The EU body issued a damning report on how the FIAU handled the Pilatus Bank case.
