title: SocGen says no wrongdoing in handling of National Front accounts
text: PARIS (Reuters) - French bank Societe Generale on Wednesday rejected the far-right National Front s accusations that it had acted to  suffocate  the party by closing accounts.   Societe Generale group s decisions on whether to open or close a bank account depend purely on banking reasons and in respect of all regulatory requirements, without taking into account any political consideration,  it said in a statement.  Regarding the opening of an account at Credit du Nord, a financial representative of Front National asked the Bank of France for the right to have a bank account as an individual. Credit du Nord responded to the Bank of France s requirements and offered the services required within the right s regulatory framework.  Credit du Nord is part of the French retail banking network of SocGen.
