Chinese customers accuse Spanish bank BBVA of racism

(CNN)Spain’s second-largest bank has apologized after hundreds of Chinese customers accused the group of racism for freezing their bank accounts without warning.

BBVA customers staged a protest outside the group’s Madrid offices on Friday, waving Chinese and Spanish flags and demanding their accounts be unlocked.
The bank apologized on Saturday but denied that they deliberately discriminated against Chinese customers, claiming the accounts were frozen in compliance with Spanish anti-money laundering regulations.
