The discussion centres around the need to maintain the balance between transparency through the dissemination of information, on the one hand, and respect for the customer's DoC, on the other hand. It is argued whether the DoC in modern banking should be considered a rule or an exception from the rule.

KEYWORDS: Duty of confidentiality, transparency, money laundering, disclosure,
