Question No. 4

Imagine that the Chief Executive of a UK bank attempted to learn the name of a whistleblower within the bank - the whistleblower had earlier reported wrongdoing within the bank to the state banking authorities anonymously.

Imagine the regula-tory authorities in both the UK and the US took action as a result. What is the most likely action which would be taken by the authorities?
