Some key takeaways from the presentation…

Widespread Interconnected Ponzi Scheme

Securitization professionals at several  financial institutions knowingly bundled fraud  riddled loans into RMBS.  New investors  needed to pay-off old investors.  To delay  being busted, they escalated and sped up the  fraud. This required more “complexity” and the  involvement of more cronies.   Many CDOs and virtually every CDO-Squared  were more fraud to cover-up fraud.

Fraud audits are in order

Financial Meth Labs
• Investment banks – securities fraud
• Mortgage lenders – widespread fraud
• Rating agencies – junk science
• CDO “managers” – crash test dummies & accomplices
• Certain hedge funds – shorted CDOs they “managed”
• Bond insurers – money for nothing
• Regulators – poseurs and enablers

Banks (not borrowers) Broke the Law
•  Delinquency is not a crime.
•  Being foreclosed upon is not a crime.
•  Bankruptcy is not a crime.
