A $2 trillion banking scandal could destroy Buffett favorite BNY Mellon (NYSE: BK).

The Bank of New York (BK) is one of four big banks accused of moving and laundering money for suspected criminals by BuzzFeed News. BuzzFeed News alleges U.S. Treasury Department’s Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) ignored $2 trillion worth of suspicious financial transactions.

The Guardian claims the leak exposes $2 trillion worth of suspicious financial transactions. The BuzzFeed article does not identify any suspicious BNY Mellon transactions, but it claims the Bank of New Mellon takes part in the traffic.

BK Mellon is a Cheap and Cash-Rich Value Stock

If you want a cheap, cash-rich value stock that pays a dividend, BNY Mellon (BK) is a splendid choice.

However, BuzzFeed’s FinCEN allegations show there could be serious ethical problems at BNY Mellon. Thus, BK is a good cheap value stock if you can tolerate money laundering and companies that do business with bad people.
