Reports

A comprehensive report documenting in detail the risks faced by all holders of financial securities.

Little do most market participants know, when they buy stocks and bonds from the broker, their assets are no longer fully their property and their securities are secretly being utilized as collateral. This puts them at risk of total loss, should their assets be seized as collateral in a market decline.

Changing market practices within the financial services industry, particularly the growth of the repo market as the main inter-bank money market, places all investors at risk.

These risks are not widely understood and not included in the risk modeling of even the largest investment firms.
