ALBANY, N.Y. (AP) — New York regulators have reached agreement for Standard Chartered Bank to pay a $300 million penalty and suspend dollar exchanges through its New York branch for high-risk retail business clients at its SCB Hong Kong subsidiary.

The Department of Financial Services says the order signed Tuesday follows the bank’s failure to fix compliance problems against money laundering required in a settlement two years ago.
