Anglo’s ex-CFO gives evidence under immunity

Anglo Irish Bank’s former chief financial officer has begun giving evidence under immunity at the trial of three of the bank’s former executives.

Matt Moran told the jury he was granted immunity from prosecution following discussions with the DPP and his lawyers.

He said that on July 9, 2008, he was told by one of the accused, William McAteer, that Anglo was lending money to 10 investors to buy shares in the bank.
