Lehman Brothers Bank to Be Not Bailed Out

The Lehman Brothers are not going to be bailed out; at least that’s what the policy decisions are indicating. The head of the panel that is investigating the financial crisis said on Wednesday that they had no legal authority over the matter to extend a helping “hand”.

Furthermore, there have been comments against the former Lehman Chairman, pointing out that the Federal Reserve and Treasure could have done a lot more to prevent his firm from going bankrupt in 2008. The impacts of that bankruptcy can be dated back to World War II.

The Chairman of the Financial Crisis Inquiry Commission – Phil Angelides said, “To me, it seems that a conscious effort of not helping the entity was made over the past few months. It also looks like there are some specific political parties that are at play.”

The commission is going to join heads for the next two days, deciding to come up with a decision concerning proper steps about firms that deemed too big to fail. Jim Wilkinson – Treasury Chief of Staff said that he can’t stomach the idea of Lehman being bailed out.

Some people want to save Lehman because it was the only investment bank that was worth a dime on the block.
