‘Corporate bullying’: Melbourne brothel sues bank for discrimination

Franco Puleo, owner of Melbourne's Gotham City brothel, sued Bendigo Bank this week for discrimination after it closed six of his accounts, claiming the sex industry fell outside its risk appetite. Puleo alleges the bank violated Victoria's Equal Opportunity Act. Bendigo argues it closed the accounts to meet anti-money laundering obligations and manage financial crime risks.
