...black, my superiors closed their eyes to the methods and volumes involved."That suggests that even more destabilizing revelations for Société Générale may be in the offing. And that could unlock the lips of shareholders who have filed suit against the bank, but have thus far shied away from calling for Bouton's ouster until the crisis is over. Indeed, it is, perhaps perversely, the gravity of SocGen's situation that makes some prefer to cling to Bouton for now. CGT union official Marchet says he opposes Bouton's ouster because "it would...
