Bear Stearns duo 'lied over and over'

A pair of maverick Bear Stearns hedge fund managers lied to clients "over and over again" to protect their multimillion dollar pay cheques, exchanging secret emails to orchestrate a $1.6bn fraud as their funds imploded in the global financial crisis, a US jury heard yesterday. At a federal court in the New York borough of Brooklyn, financiers Ralph Cioffi and Matthew Tannin became the first Wall Street bankers to stand trial in a criminal case arising from the credit crunch.

Ex-Wall Street financiers face criminal action

Former Bear Stearns hedge fund manager Matthew Tannin's private jottings show concerns about 'blow up risk' to investors...Tannin and his boss, Ralph Cioffi, ran two funds holding $1.4bn of clients' funds that collapsed in July 2007, an event widely viewed as the first clear signal of America's sub-prime mortgage crisis and the global credit crunch. The meltdown of these funds sparked a chain of events that contributed to the demise of Bear Stearns, an 85-year-old Wall Street institution, in early 2008. They have been charged by US prosecutors with defrauding customers by hiding the true condition of investments as prospects steadily darkened.
