...homegrown speculators, he will end up in a nice, cushy job, living the good life. Frank Jerome Columbus, Indiana BARINGS' COLLAPSE CANNOT BE BLAMED solely on derivatives. A system that permits a trader any access, however limited, to the back-office process (settlement, accounting, mark to market) is a blueprint for disaster.
