ABN Amro Group NV’s former top lawyer in the U.K. sued the Dutch lender for race discrimination over her treatment by an executive who allegedly said “let’s talk about all things black” and claimed he couldn’t see her in a photograph.
Angela Cobbina, 41, who is black, said in court documents at a London employment tribunal yesterday that she was the target of a campaign to force her out of the company before being fired as U.K. head of legal in September.
