Sharlene Goff takes a look at Standard Chartered, whose protest vote last week over pay proposals was the biggest of its kind this year. Finally, Sam Fleming has news that banks are bracing for a new fight over capital requirements as the Basel Committee moves to tighten regulations on risks linked to interest rate shocks  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
