There are calls for a cluster of international investment scams to come under scrutiny.  

Financial expert Janine Starks wants a banking ombudsman to launch an investigation after accusing banks of corporate failure. 

She says there's systemic failures with foreign scams estimated to be stealing up to $200 million a year from New Zealanders.
