An Australian banker is in hot water after being filmed looking at semi-nude photos of a model while a colleague was doing a television interview nearby. He could be seen clicking on photos of Miranda Kerr in the background of the Channel 7 interview on Tuesday with an analyst for Macquarie Private Wealth.

Macquarie Private Wealth, however, was not amused and said it was taking the matter very seriously. (awkward!) The images of Ms Kerr could clearly be seen during the Channel 7 interview, only at the end of which does the banker turn to the camera and realise he has been filmed.

The banker in question, said to be a mid-level client investment manager, has reportedly been meeting executives to determine his future.
