Overview
Lehman Principal Protected Notes Under Fire
Brokerage firms - including Lehman Brothers, UBS, Citigroup and others - that marketed Lehman Principal Protected Notes as low-risk, conservative structured investment products are now finding themselves on the legal hot seat with investors. In Lehman's own marketing brochures, the structured notes were touted as having “100 percent principal protection.” As investors ultimately discovered, however, that promise turned out to be false, with the value of the notes now almost worthless.
Lehman Return Optimization Securities Hid Risks From Investors
Investors in Lehman Principal Protected Notes and Lehman Return Optimization Securities are now finding themselves caught in a financial tsunami. Both investments, which were sold by UBS and other brokerages, were marketed as “low-risk investments” designed to guarantee the kind of safety associated with “capital preservation.” The problem is the guarantee itself: It was only relevant if the issuer - in this case, Lehman Brothers - remained solvent.
