Traditional U.K. Banks Are Refusing Blockchain Startups Business Bank Accounts.
Exciting new disruptive blockchain startups with FULL KYC/AML (Know Your Customer / Anti Money Laundering) Investment funding are constantly being refused business bank accounts with the traditional U.K. banks
CurveBlock (U.K.) a Blockchain based startup within The Real Estate Development Sector has being refused a business bank account with Barclays bank “Due to the nature of Blockchain”, even though CurveBlock has KYC/AML (Know Your Customer / Anti Money Laundering) and are also seeking SEC compliance, Barclays refuse to allow a business bank account to be opened.
Traditional banks are simply hindering or killing innovation within the U.K. and forcing startups to bank outside of the U.K. WHY !!!!!!
