????在破產(chǎn)程序中,，無擔(dān)保債權(quán)人通常在有擔(dān)保的借貸人之后才能獲得清償。根據(jù)明富環(huán)球的破產(chǎn)申請文件,，該公司最大的無擔(dān)保債權(quán)人包括： 持有約12億美元債券的摩根大通銀行（JP Morgan Chase）,；持有10.2億美元債券的德意志銀行（Deutsche Bank AG）；持有390萬美元債券的Headstrong Services LL 咨詢公司,；康卡斯特公司（Comcast Corp. ）旗下的美國全國廣播公司財經(jīng)頻道（CNBC）要求賠償845,397美元（未支付的廣告費）,。
明富環(huán)球的明星銀行家
????喬恩?柯賽2010年3月份出任明富環(huán)球CEO的時候,，這家公司是華爾街少有的幾家還在招兵買馬的的金融機構(gòu)之一。當(dāng)時,，世界各地的銀行受金融危機影響,，裁掉了數(shù)以十萬計的員工。曾經(jīng)在1994年至1999年執(zhí)掌高盛集團的喬恩?柯賽招聘了800位員工,，試圖使這家經(jīng)紀交易商轉(zhuǎn)型為一家投資銀行,。
????據(jù)彭博社（Bloomberg）報道，當(dāng)時招募的人員包括：瑞銀華寶（UBS AG）美洲公司前首席風(fēng)險官邁克爾?斯托克曼,、花旗集團（Citigroup Inc）歐洲固定收益部前主管理查德?穆爾,，以及同樣來自瑞銀華寶，并擔(dān)任過這家投行董事的喬恩?巴斯,。
????這些人的最終歸宿在哪里,，誰都說不準，但至少就目前而言,，這些明星銀行家中的許多人很有可能會成為美國數(shù)百萬失業(yè)大軍的一員,。
喬恩?柯賽本人
????外界普遍認為，喬恩?柯賽當(dāng)年之所以愿意出任明富環(huán)球的掌門人,，是為了在華爾街重振雄風(fēng),。擔(dān)任了一段時間的公職之后，這位前高盛集團CEO試圖推動明富環(huán)球進入更具風(fēng)險性的領(lǐng)域,，進而將其改造成一個更具影響力的金融機構(gòu),。無論柯賽的動機如何，這家公司的倒閉似乎正在考驗他在華爾街的聲譽,?？沦惛跔査箵碛虚L期的商業(yè)關(guān)系，數(shù)十年前他們就曾經(jīng)一起在高盛集團共事,。直到最近,，柯賽還是弗勞爾斯私募股權(quán)公司的運營合伙人之一。
????喬恩?柯賽能否設(shè)法重新成為華爾街的寵兒,，依然有待觀察,。我們知道，即便破產(chǎn)法院撤銷他高達1,200萬美元的遣返費,，他也不會窮困潦倒,。但目前，聯(lián)邦監(jiān)管當(dāng)局正在針對近來明富環(huán)球損失數(shù)千萬客戶資金一事展開調(diào)查,，他在華爾街的聲譽或許已變得岌岌可危了。

????In a bankruptcy, unsecured creditors get repaid after secured lenders. According to MF Global's bankruptcy filing, some of the firm's biggest unsecured lenders include: JP Morgan Chase (JPM), a bondholder trustee with a claim of approximately $1.2 billion; Deutsche Bank AG (DB), a trustee with a claim of $1.02 billion in bonds; Headstrong Services LL with a claim of $3.9 million; and Comcast Corp. (CMCSA)'s CNBC with a claim of $845,397 (unpaid ad sales).
MF Global's star bankers
????When Corzine took over as MF Global's CEO in March 2010, the firm was one of the few on Wall Street adding staff as banks worldwide announced hundreds of thousands of layoffs amid the financial crisis. Corzine, who helped run Goldman Sachs from 1994 to 1999, hired 800 employees in efforts to turn the broker-dealer into an investment bank.
????As Bloomberg reports, recruits included: Michael Stockman, UBS AG's former chief risk officer for the Americas, Richard Moore, once Citigroup Inc (C)'s head of European fixed-income, and Jon Bass, also previously of UBS and a member of the investment bank's board.
????It's anyone's guess where they might end up, but for now at least, many of them will likely join the millions already in the job market.
Jon Corzine himself
????Corzine was widely viewed as attempting to revive his Wall Street career by taking the helm at MF Global. Coming off a stint in public service, the former Goldman Sachs CEO tried to makeover MF Global into something bigger by taking on risky trades. Whatever his intentions, the firm's meltdown seems to be testing his rep on Wall Street. Corzine had a long business relationship with Flowers, dating back to their days at Goldman decades ago. And up until recently, Corzine was an operating partner at Flowers private equity firm.
????It remains to be seen if Corzine will be able to work his way back into the graces of Wall Street. And we know he won't end up poor, even if his $12 million severance payment is rescinded by the bankruptcy court. But for now, as federal regulators investigate hundreds of millions of dollars in customer money missing from MF Global in recent days, his reputation on the Street may be at stake. |
