Post-Lehman, Money Market Fund Protections Still Weak
Money market funds played a central role in Lehman Brothers’ failure and helped spread the contagion. But, Jennifer Taub, of Vermont Law School, says, the problems remain unsolved.
Lehman Brothers Inc. H. Lehman and Bro. Montgomery, Alabama, U.S. On September 15, 2008, Lehman Brothers filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection following the exodus of most of its clients, drastic declines in its stock price, and the devaluation of assets by credit rating agencies.
More than $115 billion was paid out. Lehman's 111,000 customers received all $106 billion they were owed, and secured creditors also received full payouts. Unsecured creditors recovered $9.4 billion, or about 41 cents on the dollar. They were originally expected to recover about 20 cents on the dollar.
Fifteen years ago, the world witnessed the largest commercial collapse in history. The financial giant Lehman Brothers filed for bankruptcy on Sept.15, 2008, with $613 billion in debt, putting thousands of employees out of work and sending the already recessionary economy into a tailspin.
The Investigations and Legal Consequences. In the aftermath of the Lehman Brothers bankruptcy, investigations were launched into the bank's financial practices and the events leading up to the bankruptcy. These investigations focused on allegations of financial misconduct, including fraud and insider trading.
The short answer was that Lehman was illiquid and lacked sufficient collateral to borrow enough from the Fed or to renew the repurchase agreement contracts (repos) to avert collapse. Surprisingly, just before filing for bankruptcy, Lehman was given investment-grade ratings by the big three independent rating agencies.

Now aged 72, Fuld has made a comeback as the head of New York-based Matrix Private Capital, and the “key wealth centres” of Los Angeles and Palm Beach in Florida.

New York, NY, September 28, 2022 – Judge Shelley C. Chapman of the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of New York today closed the Lehman Brothers Inc.
Paulson Jr., the former Treasury Secretary, and Timothy F. Geithner, who was then president of the New York Fed, have all argued that Lehman Brothers was in such a deep hole from its risky real estate investments that Fed did not have the legal authority to rescue it.
Financial stresses peaked following the failure of the US financial firm Lehman Brothers in September 2008. Together with the failure or near failure of a range of other financial firms around that time, this triggered a panic in financial markets globally.
Lehman borrowed significant amounts to fund its investing in the years leading to its bankruptcy in 2008, a process known as leveraging or gearing. A significant portion of this investment was in housing-related assets, making it vulnerable to a downturn in that market.
Lehman Brothers was a global financial firm that provided investment banking, trading, brokerage, and other services. It was the fourth-largest investment bank in the United States.
These institutions hold a total of 38,441 shares. Largest shareholders include CHURCHILL MANAGEMENT Corp, Private Ocean, LLC, West Oak Capital, LLC, Ancora Advisors, LLC, and Huntington National Bank .
