TY - GEN T1 - Chain of blame how Wall Street caused the mortgage and credit crisis A1 - Muolo, Paul. A2 - Padilla, Mathew. LA - English PP - Hoboken, N.J. PB - John Wiley & Sons YR - 2008 UL - https://colectivo.uloyola.es/Record/ELB178256 AB - In the summer of 2007, the subprime empire that Wall Street had built all came crashing down. Banks like Countrywide and non-banks such as New Century Financial--all financed by Bear Stearns, Goldman Sachs, Merrill Lynch, Lehman Brothers and others--were in danger of closing, or actually failing. On average, 50 lenders a month were going bust. Chain of Blame will chronicle the disaster, focusing on the players - the executives on Wall Street but also the lenders and brokers. It's a national story of greed and avaraice, one that hasn't come down the pike since the S&L scandal.--From publisher description. OP - 338 CN - HG5095 .M86 2008 KW - Mortgages : United States.
