  • Lehman Brothers
    Lehman Brothers Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. (Pink Sheets: LEHMQ, former NYSE ticker symbol LEH) (pronounced / ˈliːm ə n/ ) was a global financial services firm which, until declaring bankruptcy in 2008, participated in business in investment banking, equity and fixed-income sales, research and trading, investment management, private equity, and private banking. It was a primary dealer in the U.S. Treasury securities market. Its primary subsidiaries included Lehman Brothers Inc., Neuberger Berman Inc., Aurora Loan Services, Inc., SIB Mortgage Corporation, Lehman Brothers Bank, FSB, Eagle Energy Partners, and the Crossroads Group. The firm's worldwide headquarters were in New York City, with regional headquarters in London and Tokyo, as well as offices located throughout the world. On September 15, 2008, the firm filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection following the massive exodus of most of its clients, drastic losses in its stock, and devaluation of its assets by credit rating agencies. The filing marked the largest bankruptcy in U.S. history.[2] The following day, the British bank Barclays announced its agreement to purchase, subject to regulatory approval, Lehman's North American investment-banking and trading divisions along with its New York headquarters building.[3][4] On September 20, 2008, a revised version of that agreement was approved by U.S. Bankruptcy Judge James M. Peck.[5] During the week of September 22, 2008, Nomura Holdings announced that it would acquire Lehman Brothers' franchise in the Asia Pacific region, including Japan, Hong Kong and Australia.[6] as well as, Lehman Brothers' investment banking and equities businesses in Europe and the Middle East.

(FIG) of Garden City, New York, Frank Paul Giraldi, its president, and Mark Steven Milana, a registered representative. The NASD censured the firm and imposed a fine of $308,677.40, fined Giraldi and Milana $62,000 and $40,000 respectively, and censured and barred them from acting in a supervisory or principal capacity with any NASD member. The Commission found, as had the NASD, that between July 1989 and June 1990 FIG sold 12 over-the-counter securities to retail customers on a riskless principal basis at prices that included markups ranging from 11.11% to 188.46% above FIG's contemporaneous costs. The Commission rejected FIG's argument that, although it was not a market maker in any of the securities, it could price securities based on the lowest quoted ask. The Commission further found, as had the NASD, that Giraldi was responsible for FIG's failures to disclose these markups on the customer confirmations, to implement written procedures to detect and prevent excessive markups and to report price and volume information for certain activity in a pink sheet security. In affirming, the Commission noted that, since lower fines were imposed on Giraldi and Milana and they were not barred in all capacities, the sanctions were "commensurate with their participation in the violations, yet also reflect that they had no prior disciplinary history."

There are various smaller subsidiaries held by the large conglomerate and offer a wide arrange of products including: • Consumer banking and credit • Corporate and investment banking • Securities brokerage • Trade and securities services • Wealth management Citigroup prides itself on being a full-service firm that runs the gambit of services on Wall Street. Despite their reach and broad product line, they only own about 9% of market share in the financial services industry and is the fourth largest bank in the industry (Morningstar, 2018).
