Toxic Mortgages Haunt Goldman

Meanwhile, Toxic Mortgages continue to haunt Goldman Sachs. Barely recovering from the poor publicity derived from an SEC investigation which ended in a settlement, Goldman is facing another law suit. The tainted Golden Goose of the Investment Banking industry was hit with a suit from a German Bank concerning a pool of mortgage assets sold to them in 206.

According to the Wall Street Journal, the suit alleges that Goldman failed to fully disclose the risks underlying the mortgage back securities. According to court documents, the suit contends that Goldman knowingly dumped collateralized debt obligations on their subsidiary LBBW Luxemburg, even though they saw signs that the market was tanking.
