1995: Rogue trader Nick Leeson jailed
Former futures trader Nick Leeson is jailed for six-and-a-half years for his part in the collapse of Britain's oldest merchant bank.
The 28-year-old admitted to a judge in Singapore two charges of fraud connected with Barings Bank's Β£860m ruin.
Leeson served less than four years of his sentence and he wrote a book, Rogue Trader, which later became a film.
