Answer

Hi Scarlett. To have skeletons in the cupboard is to be hiding something, often something that could cause problems if it becomes known to others. In the example you give, the writer is asking if there is anything else that could cause a scandal, that the banks don't want the public to know. I hope this helps.

Answer

skeletons in the closet ( this is an idiom )= shameful secrets
