On 20 September 2012, a court decision was handed down announcing the bankruptcy of the Polish para-bank Amber Gold (earlier, on 13 August 2012, the company was liquidated and all branches were closed). All of its 263 workers will be dismissed.
Amber Gold was founded in 2009. The company is suspected of defrauding customers' money, and the owner of the company is under arrest.
