The government needs to do even more than regulate hybrid derivative protections and the establishments who underwrite them. They need to inject reason. Needing public registrations and a violent regulatory body are needed to guarantee public protection in future hybrid safety issuance's. Directors and officers of banks who wager with others' cash ought to receive heavy penalties when their bets fail. Both for the company's they represent and personally. They ought to lose all huge selection they have actually accumulated and the collected plethora of their direct supervisors must be forfeited. Without repercussions these individuals will create another world financial crisis. Due to the fact that derivatives are complicated, I'm developing a metaphor to make them simpler to comprehend for the laid-back reader as topics such as mortgage audit can be very complicated.
Just what if General Motors were enabled to wager on the failure of a car part? Imagine if they were allowed to get an insurance policy which paid them a million bucks every time a fuel injector failed on a Chevy Malibu and caught it on fire. Everything if GM convinced an insurance company to payout when one of its very own items failed and injured someone? And the payment went to GM. Let's telephone call these insurance agreements "GM injector default swaps" or "IDS's." Let's pretend that the insurance company has so much faith in the injectors that they over concern them due to the fact that of their research on past injector failings. The insurance companies permit GM to put 50 or 100 of these wagers out on each injector put in a vehicle. They let Joe Engineer purchase them in his 401k even though he is making the injectors. After all, injector failures have been remarkably reasonable and this appears like a no-brainer business decision from the actuaries at the insurance company. In their own world, it represents a massive volume of complimentary premium, with no risk, and someone else marketing the contracts so exactly what the f *ck. Now let's simply say for argument's sake that there were companies in Detroit of reasonable moral character, (most likely right wing republicans) who decided to in some way persuade GM to change the design of the Malibu injector. Let's assume that they persuaded GM engineers to create it to fail in order to benefit themselves on the IDS's. Simply a little failure, no one truly gets hurt, however enough of a failure that induces IDS agreements. Let's even include in our metaphor that these business who convinced GM to produce their own injectors to fail loaded up on the injector failing insurance contracts. Even though they understand that the huge, too big to fail insurance company will certainly be financially devastated, and that the company is of some considerable value to the US economic climate; in fact the whole globe economic situation due to the fact that of its enormity and just how many people and additional morally practical firms depend on it for all kinds of insurance items.
They are convinced that the government will conserve the insurance business if trillions of bucks are owed to these IDS holders since enabling the insurance business to fail will produce a lynch pin financial event. So their wagers are thought to be secure. Let's pretend that convincing GM engineers to revamp the injectors to fail and load up on IDS' was more profitable to the GM pro-forma than creating and selling sound automobiles. They recognize that this short term plan will certainly ruin the economy and hurt many people. They don't care because of the large payday they will certainly receive. They validate that the government would step in and bail out the insurance business (s) because of its (their) value to the economic climate. At the end of this game there are tons of dead bodies, however no one important.
OK, let's place a brand-new twist on this. Let's say that the company plan to sell autos with f*cked up injectors is starting to look so lucrative that GM decides that giving these autos away to anybody who wished one might speed up and drastically boost the overall future IDS income accruals to GM and its cohorts. Let's even state that the engineers could actually design the injectors to fail after exactly 2 years of use. The two years will certainly provide GM time to construct and award an enormous quantity of injector failing produced Malibus to wager against. The 2 years will certainly provide the insurance business, (who understand absolutely nothing of the injector failure design) an incredible amount of assurance in providing the IDS's. The insurance business will in fact make billions of dollars on the insurance premiums over the two years. Their ignorance/naivete will certainly cost them trillions beginning at the two year mark as they have not been privy to the substandard injector design charade. All is well in Detroit.
OK, fast forward. The two years have passed and the first customers of inexpensive Malibu's with substandard injectors are starting to have injector failures. It's on the news, GM and their cohorts are laughing their asses off in closed door board room treatments. The investors in GM stocks and business bonds are not. The stock is getting pounded, the bonds are getting pounded. The GM executives choose to show S and P, Fitch and Moody's that they more than covered for defective injectors with their injector default swap acquisitions. The protections rebound and savvy experts at Ford and Chrysler understand the event. They recommend their business directors to leap aboard and begin making automobiles with faulty throttle bodies and faulty crank shafts. On the other hand they buy TBDS and CSDS insurance coverage from the big insurance business and GM follows suit. Soon all autos manufactured in our cherished America are produced with defective parts covered by flawed part insurance payable to greedy immoral b*stards. Autos stalled and burnt up all over our highways are not being paid for are being repossessed. Rich men are cashing checks from the insurance business who underwrote the IDS's and all at once putting huge pressure on the government, everyone and the fed to bail out the insurance company, or there might be economic catastrophe for all. They don't provide a f*ck about individuals who die in the burnt up vehicles or those who lose their vehicles ... Little rate for the uber rich to pay (a little smoke on the highway they just require view from their Lear Jet windows - it's tough to see from up there).
This is just what occurred in our mortgage business. This is exactly how rapid food workers got half million buck homes. The home loans were made to fail and awarded to anyone breathing so that hedge funds and bankers (Scion cap, John Paulson, Goldman Sachs ... the listing is not that long however definitely distinguished) can make billions and billions wagering against them. The moral threat - It could well be the unwinding of our economic climate, the worldwide economic climate and political military reliability around the globe.
My conclusion ... Just as long as we have business that are too huge to fail and who are allowed to DEPEND on taxpayers to bail them out when they screw up, as evidenced by the recent JP Morgan Chase - Jamie Dimon fiasco, we the people have to make d*mn certain that how they do business is safe. They have to be regulated. Violently controlled. Better yet, they ought to have been permitted to fail.
