The ousted chairman of the Vatican bank tells his side of the story for the first time. I have a question for Cardinal George Pell, who as prefect of the
Secretariat for the Economy is supervising the reform of the finances of
the Holy See. Your Eminence, are you sure you have been properly
informed about the recent history of the Vatican bank, of which I was
chairman from 2009 until I was dismissed after a vote of no confidence
in 2012?
In an article for the Catholic Herald last month, Cardinal Pell explained why he believes that the finances of the Holy See are in good shape and everything is now under control. Indeed, he said that the Vatican’s financial situation was much healthier than it seemed – because hundreds of millions of euros had come to light that were missing from the Vatican’s balance sheet.
