		</div><p>Spain&#8217;s National Court said it is investigating seven current and former HSBC executives in the private banking business accused of money laundering and criminal organisation.</p>
<p>HSBC&#8217;s Swiss banking unit has been investigated in several countries after leaked documents suggested it helped wealthy people around the world dodge taxes. A former IT employee, Herve Falciani, gave the data to French tax authorities in 2008 and France shared it with Spanish authorities and other governments.</p>
<p>Judge Jose de la Mata ruled on Thursday to investigate the Swiss banking unit&#8217;s former chairman, Peter Widmer, as well as Clive Bannister and Christopher Meares, who were CEOs in 2006 and 2007 respectively, and four more employees.</p>
<p>The judge found evidence that the executives worked with Banco Santander and BNP Paribas to transfer funds at least until 2008 to avoid taxation in Spain.</p>
<p>HSBC declined to comment.</p>
