He got an email saying if he develops them a site they will put several million into his account as payment, to hide money that would only go to a corrupt government regime otherwise

As much as I like Neutraface, I'd be amazed if a bank went for something quite so deco.

Unless they have the interiors to match of course.

Love the Natwest typeface - think its a custom job, looks great and used consistently.

I'm looking for something with a bit of character like Neutra Display Titling although your right about it being a little old school, in terms of guidelines i'm branding the bank so there are none (yet).

A jizz typeface? it would be fun creating it, but scanning each letter in might be messy. Besides its a money bank.
