Capital One Says Trump Organization Accounts Were Closed After Anti-Money Laundering Review

Capital One has told a U.S. federal court that its decision to close more than 300 bank accounts linked to the Trump Organization in 2021 followed an internal anti-money laundering (AML) review rather than political considerations. The filing was made as the bank seeks dismissal of a lawsuit brought by the Trump Organization and Eric Trump, who allege they were unlawfully “debanked” because of their political affiliations.
