Why didn't James Bond instruct the Swiss Banker to stop Vesper's cash withdrawal?
I assume Bond didn't even try to ask Mr. Mendel to stop the wire transfer by Vesper Lynd. Why not? My assumption is reasonable because the movie shows Vesper Lynd walking to Gettier with a gray briefcase. Later Mr. White picks up that gray briefcase.
If I got anything wrong or if anyone wants to add stills from the movie, go ahead and edit this.

Best Answer
Bond wasn't actually in charge of the account.
Vesper was the one who controlled the finances for the mission. She was the one who gave permission for additional funds to be released.
All Bond could do was arrange for the transfer of the funds TO the account after he won. It was Vesper who was supposed to transfer the funds back to the Treasury.
