LEHMAN BROTHERS QUARTO ATTO

Scenario molto complesso.

In estrema sintesi: PricewaterhouseCoopers, amministratore di LBIE, ha fatto benissimo il suo lavoro. Non solo è riuscito a spuntarla sulle somme reclamate da LBHI ma ha anche amministrato con oculatezza tanto da sviluppare un surplus tra 8/10 miliardi di sterline. Peccato che i controlli dei claims siano stati alquanto superficiali, al punto di trovare che alcune società di investimento ( ad esempio Elliott Management Corp.e King Street Capital Management LP ) compaiano tanto tra i creditori senior quanto tra quelli subordinati per crediti assimilabili.

La Suprema Corte ha dato ragione alla tesi PWC. Bisognerebbe studiarsi la materia ma, francamente, non ho testa: tanto per noi, a questo punto, cambia poco.

Tutto rigorosamente IMHO
Caro Duetto grazie per il tempo e la pazienza con cui ti dedichi a questo forum!
Spero che lo scenario ottimistico proposto da Camill Two si avveri, nel frattempo non posso che seguirvi e sperara in buone nuove. :)
 
Vulture hedge fund Elliott Management seeking to strip hundreds of millions from carcass of Lehman Brothers in legal battle over debts


Lehman is being wound up by PwC, which has already doled out £35bn and has up to £8bn more to spread around.

A UK High Court ruling this week said that £5bn should go to senior creditors before Elliott and other junior creditors.

But the hedge fund was given a boost when the court dismissed a separate £2bn claim made by another group of creditors. This has put Elliott in a much stronger position than it was before, as there is now less competition for the remaining cash.

The hedge fund has a long and controversial history of aggressively targeting underperforming firms – and has never been afraid of using legal action to get its way.

... E da Lehman Brothers Finance AG (“LBF”) ancora nessuna novità? Un tempo se ne parlava come dell'associata più rilevante. Poi è calato il silenzio ...


Lehman Brothers Finance AG (in liquidation) and Lehman Brothers International (Europe) (in administration) announce signing of settlement agreement – 22 February 2013


The Joint Administrators are pleased to announce the signing of a settlement deed with Lehman Brothers Finance AG (“LBF”) which settles substantially all the financial arrangements between the parties. The relationship between LBIE and LBF is one of the most complex and material affiliate relationships covering securities settlement and custody, secured financing, OTC / Exchange Traded derivatives and Prime Broker. The agreement is subject to the finalisation of Swiss approval processes applicable to both LBIE (in so far as the settlement impacts its ancillary Swiss insolvency proceeding) and LBF.

Tony Lomas, Joint Administrator, commented "This settlement has been a long time in the making but we are pleased that it is now agreed between us and subject only to Swiss regulatory and creditor consents. The settlement has considerable benefits for LBIE as we continue to firm up plans for the 2013 distributions to our unsecured creditors and client money claimants."

The agreement, once approved, will secure a settlement at the levels modelled for LBF in the High Case Indicative Financial Outcome as set out in the Joint Administrators’ Eighth Progress Report to 14 September 2012 and eliminate the downside sensitivities in the Low Case outcome.

Outline Terms of Agreement:

  • $200m cash payment to LBF on deal approval
  • $450m assets/ asset proceeds to be retained by LBIE with balance of $650m to be returned to LBF (subject to potential realisation adjustment and to resolution of Extended Liens)
  • Assignment of any potential LBF client money claim to LBIE’s nominee
  • Conclusion of Back to Back side letter litigation
  • Granting of immediate mutual temporary reserving agreements
Further details of the settlement will be posted as part of the above noted approval process.

In definiva ho la netta sensazione che la Suprema Corte inglese stia tutelando al meglio gli interessi degli investitori inglesi.

Così va il mondo, cari amici!
 
Bloomberg: Revealed - Citi trader's gleeful messages after fall of Lehman

As U.S. officials and bank executives scrambled to save the global financial system after Lehman Brothers’s bankruptcy in the fall of 2008, Citigroup traders were doing what traders always try to do.

"Ringing the register, homey,” a trader in the bank’s credit derivatives trading unit, said in a chat message at 6:40 a.m. on Sept. 17, two days after Lehman’s bankruptcy. Subject line: "YOU MAKING $$$."

Bloomberg News reports that his gleeful boast - along with at least a dozen from others - came as Citigroup’s top traders were furiously trying to deal with thousands of derivatives terminated by Lehman’s collapse. Contained in chat messages and recordings from that turbulent September week, the exchanges are the most colorful, if not potentially damaging, evidence so far in a civil trial on allegations that Citigroup inflated its $2 billion bankruptcy claim related to those derivatives.

At the time of the bankruptcy, Lehman Brothers and Citigroup had entered into more than 30,000 derivatives trades tied to an estimated $1.18 trillion of wagers on everything from interest rates to corporate and sovereign debt. Lehman’s bankruptcy gave New York-based Citigroup the right to determine its damages
