2. Reuters- interesting observation


"It is rare for the existence of pending grand jury probes to be made public, and the status of the investigations is not clear. The Justice Department did not immediately return a call seeking comment on Tuesday.

According to the department's website, about 150 grand jury investigations of offshore banking clients have been initiated. Charges have been brought in 30 cases, resulting in two convictions and 24 guilty pleas. Four cases await trial.


(snip)

The U.S. Department of Justice revealed the probes on its website on a page discussing its tax division's Offshore Compliance Initiative. It did not identify the banks facing grand jury probes."
