Manly adds that the LBMA's code of conduct explicitly prohibits market manipulation. Manly doesn't say if the LBMA code provides any particular penalties for violation, but it's a fair guess that they include being winked and nodded at.

Manly's report is headlined "LBMA Board Member & JP Morgan Managing Director Charged with Rigging Precious Metals" and it's posted at Bullion Star here:
