UBS Trader to Appear in Court for $2.3B Fraud

Accordomg to Bloomberg Kweku Adoboli, the trader accused of costing UBS AG (UBSN) $2.3 billion by making unauthorized trades, will go before a London judge and may enter a plea before his case is transferred to a higher criminal court.

The 31-year-old will today make his third appearance at a London magistrates court, which handles the charging of suspects. Adoboli’s case is scheduled to be transferred today to a Crown Court, which handles more complex criminal trials. He may enter a plea at today’s hearing or indicate how he intends to plead once the case is transferred.
