Subject Prudential Disclosure Risk – Undisclosed Treaty Breaches & Legacy Chemical Liabilities
To: Moody’s, S&P Global Ratings, Fitch Ratings, Bank for International Settlements (BIS), Financial Stability Board (FSB), International Association of Insurance Supervisors (IAIS), International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO), International Monetary Fund (IMF), OECD Secretariat
From: Danielle Stevens
Overview
On 1 July 2025, I lodged a formal complaint with the International Criminal Court (ICC) for Crimes Against Humanity regarding the concealment of second-generation Agent Orange (TCDD) harm.
This is now a pending international criminal matter with direct implications for sovereign creditworthiness, bank stability, insurance capital adequacy, and systemic market confidence.
Jurisdictions Involved
Australia, New Zealand, Canada, United States, and Germany have all ratified key treaties (Stockholm Convention, CRC, CRPD, CERD, CESCR, ICCPR) but failed to implement them into domestic law.
These failures constitute material, undisclosed sovereign liabilities. Eight or more formal UN findings of non-compliance have already been issued to Australia, yet no trace of these findings appears in sovereign risk assessments or prudential disclosures.
Institutions at Risk
Banks: CBA, Westpac, NAB, ANZ, and counterparts in NZ, Canada, US, and Germany have issued annual reports and ESG disclosures claiming UN alignment while omitting known treaty breaches.
Insurers/Reinsurers: Swiss Re, Allianz, Munich Re, Lloyd’s, Zurich, and others may be underwriting risks without disclosure of treaty non-compliance.
Manufacturers: Bayer (Monsanto), Dow, BASF, and related firms continue to publish ESG and sustainability reports without acknowledging ongoing liabilities tied to Agent Orange and documented UN findings.
Material Prudential Risks
Fraudulent or misleading disclosure in ESG and prudential reports.
Sovereign credit exposure through undisclosed contingent liabilities across multiple jurisdictions.
Capital adequacy stress for insurers and reinsurers underwriting without disclosure.
Systemic contagion risk as denial spans five countries and multiple multinational corporations, undermining confidence in global prudential frameworks.
Action Requested
I request regulators to:
Assess whether banks, insurers, and manufacturers under your jurisdiction are meeting disclosure obligations given repeated UN findings of treaty breaches.
Issue prudential guidance on the treatment of “legacy chemical liability” exposures linked to ratified treaties such as the Stockholm Convention.
Evaluate whether systemic non-disclosure constitutes material prudential risk to financial markets and sovereign ratings.
Supporting Evidence
ICC filing lodged 1 July 2025 (case reference available under confidentiality protocols).
Annexes distributed fortnightly to regulators and OECD National Contact Points.
UN treaty body reports (8+ findings of non-compliance).
Public statements by banks, insurers, and manufacturers in ESG reports that appear inconsistent with documented UN findings.
Evidence of systematic cover-up is available here:
Please confirm your position on these matters — specifically whether disclosure obligations regarding repeated UN findings of treaty breaches have been addressed — no later than 30 August 2025. Silence will be documented as part of the ICC and OECD Annex records.
Warm Agent Orange Burns regards,

A formal complaint has been lodged with the International Criminal Court for Crimes against Humanity. The final submission was the 1st of July 2025.
Australia ratified International treaties but failed to implement them into domestic laws.
When the United Nations tells you 8+ times you are breaking the law, YOU ARE BREAKING THE LAW. Stockholm Convention & Agent Orange is a chemical war crime against children.
Profit before People is a crime.
