@SpykerSpeed "He's not Hungarian, he's Jewish." Being Jewish doesn't mean he's not Hungarian. Most countries have minorities. Those minorities are still nationals of that country.

@SuperLusername "sorry, I dont really understand why would anyone lend currency to Soros so he can short it. Dont you screw yourself then?" You're not better off by not lending him money. By lending him money the banks that serve his hedge fund can still charge interest and fees. Theoretically, they could themselves bet against the Pound but banks aren't generally in the business of making such speculative bets. They're just middlemen. Also, the Pound falling isn't a disaster for them or anything because they also have debts denominated in the Pound, not just assets (like loans to Soros' fund).
