Summary
Summary
The bankruptcy filing of Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc (LBHI) on 15 September 2008, was one of the signal events of the financial crisis. The disorderly and costly nature of the LBHI bankruptcy - the largest, and still ongoing, financial bankruptcy in U.S. history - contributed to the massive financial disruption of late 2008. This book examines how the government could have structured a resolution of Lehman under the orderly liquidation authority of Title II of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (Dodd-Frank) and how the outcome could have differed from the outcome under bankruptcy. Key figures surrounding this important financial event also provide their analysis.
