Milken himself viewed the securities laws, rules and regulations with some degree of contempt, and often condoned uhical and illegal behavior by his colleagues at Drexel39。s crimes.[5] The threat of a RICO indictment unnerved many at Drexel. A RICO indictment would have required the firm to put up a performance bond of as much as $1 billion in lieu of having its assets frozen. This provision was put in the law because anized crime had a habit of absconding with the funds of indicted panies, and the writers of RICO wanted to make sure there was something to seize or forfeit in the event of a guilty verdict. Unfortunately, most of Drexel39。d been told that if Drexel were indicted under RICO, it would only survive a month at most.[6] Noheless, negotiations for a possible plea agreement collapsed on December 19 when Giuliani demanded that Drexel waive its attorneyclient privilege. He also demanded that Milken leave the firm if the government ever indicted him. These terms were far too much even for those who had advocated a settlement from the beginning, and Drexel39。s children, and more ominously, managers of money funds. This partnership raised the specter of selfdealing, and at worst, bribes to the money managers. At the very least, this was a serious breach of Drexel39。t work out, as well as an unexpected crash of the junk bond market, 1989 was a difficult year for Drexel even after it settled the criminal and SEC cases. Reports of an $86 million loss going into the fourth quarter resulted in the firm39。s last resort was a bailout by the government. Unfortunately for Drexel, one of first hostile deals came back to haunt it at this point. Unocal39。s funds management arm as Burnham Financial Group, which currently operates as a diversified investment pany. Burnham was reportedly still arranging deals until his death at age 93.[9] The rest of Drexel emerged from bankruptcy in 1992 as New Street Capital, a small investment bank with only 20 employees (at its height, Drexel employed over 10,000 people).[2] In 1994, New Street merged with Green Capital, a merchant bank owned by Atlanta financier Holbe Green.[10] 市場報價 ? 價格 ? 結(jié)算價格 ? 交易量和未平倉合約數(shù)量 ? 期貨價格的規(guī)律 ? 正向市場、反向市場 ? 如果合約價格是期限的遞增函數(shù),稱這種市場為“正常市場”。 60 交割 Delivery ?
