Investing.com — President Donald Trump recently addressed the World Economic Forum, where he spoke about potential discriminatory practices by financial institutions against conservative customers. Trump directly urged Bank of America CEO Brian Moynihan and other banking leaders to ensure their services are open to all, regardless of political affiliation.
“I hope you’re going to open your bank to conservatives. What you’re doing is wrong,” Trump said to Moynihan, who asked him a question.
Trump’s comments were part of a broader discussion on the economy, job growth, and regulatory environments. His focus was on the importance of business inclusivity in these sectors. He stated that it was wrong for banks to potentially discriminate based on political leanings.
His statements came in the midst of ongoing dialogues at the forum on various economic and business topics. It is not yet clear what impact, if any, his comments will have on Bank of America’s or other financial institutions’ policies.
