Es wird immer deutlicher, dass es sehr, sehr viele Leute an der Wall Street gab, die Madoffs Firma seit Jahren in Verdacht hatten, mit getürkten Karten unterwegs zu sein.
Unternommen haben sie, mit Ausnahme des kürzlich vorgeladenen Experten, aber gar nichts. Der ganze juristische Ablauf um Madoff wird gewaltiger politischer Sprengstoff sein, denn es wird kaum zu verhindern sein, daß eine Menge Schmutzwäsche an die Oberfläche kommt
MADOFF WALL OF SILENCE
By JAMES DORAN, Post Wire Services
BERNARD MADOFF
Raised Wall St. suspicions.
Senior executives at some of Wall Street's biggest firms were convinced Bernard Madoff was a fraud as early as 2005 - yet none alerted authorities, documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission reveal.
Leon Gross, the former managing director in charge of worldwide equity derivatives research for Citigroup, told friends and colleagues on Wall Street in 2005 that he thought Madoff was being less than honest about the returns he could make for investors but did nothing to prevent the fraud.
Likewise, Joanne Hill, Goldman Sachs' global head of equity derivatives research, believed there was something wrong with Madoff's investment scheme because the returns he boasted in marketing materials seemed too good to be true.
Like Gross, Hill did not alert her superiors or regulatory authorities. She did, however, tell friends and colleagues about her suspicions.
