Barings bank had the same problem, a rogue trader lost 1 billion. Following this ING bought the entire bank for 1 pound, this means they assumed all Bearings Debts. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barings_Bank

Westpac lost 2 billion in the eighties lending to Alan Bond and they very nearly went under.

I dont know about you but if my fees increase too much then i will go somewhere else.
