Lehman Brothers. A Personal Account Of A Colossal Failure Of Common Sense. Fixing The System And Avoiding Future Mistakes

Hear, first-hand, from Lawrence McDonald, the only man with the courage to expose the greed and madness of the disaster which should never have happened. Find out how a colossal failure of common sense blew apart one the greatest financial institutions of our time.

“Did you know that in the twenty years Richard Fuld was the King of Lehman Brothers, Goldman Sachs had four different CEOs? Do you realize how dangerous that is? If four years is enough for the President of the United States of America, it’s probably enough for the President of a bank.”

Lawrence McDonald exposes what was going on in Lehman Brothers before the collapse in 2008. This session shows you how to spot the “tell tail” signs of an institution in trouble. Join this unique presentation and hear Lawrence’s views on how the system could be fixed to avoid global financial disasters.

“If I could somehow implement my ideas, the financial system would be fixed. I am confident of that.” - Lawrence McDonald

Panel Discussion: Debating The Current & Future Role Of Agency Brokers In The European Market Flow – How Will Agency Brokers Change The Markets

If a couple of years ago you asked any buy side trader about the future of the agency brokers, the answer would have been: There is no future for them. Why would the buy-side trader need an agency broker as he is investing in more and more tools and electronic access to control and execute his own trades?Today, however, the agency broker model is alive and kicking. Block trades are increasingly difficult to execute well. The high touch trading is not going out of fashion.

The buy side want best of both worlds - a combination of electronic trading tools and access to the personal, high-touch trading neededfor blocks or difficult-to-trade stocks. Join this panel as they debate on the future value of the agency broker to buy side and to all market participants. Learn from the different viewpoints on:
  • Dealing in a fragmented market
  • Block trade execution strategies
  • High touch vs low touch – what is really cost effective?
  • Market map for agency brokers
