Mr Benyatov has brought this action against the Bank. He claims career loss of earnings pursuant to an indemnity to be implied into his contract of employment. The Bank challenges this and says among other things, that this goes beyond the scope of any indemnity that could be implied in a contract of employment. In the alternative, Mr Benyatov claims damages for the Bank’s breaches of a duty of care in tort to protect him from criminal conviction in the performance of his duties for the Defendant in failing to assess the risks for Mr Benyatov in Romania which led to his conviction.
