Abstract: | Everyone's at it. In poky City of London backstreets, off Frankfurt's Kaiserstrasse, behind Manhattan's Battery Park, furtive-looking men are fidding with their figures. This isn't sex-for-crash. It's worse. From Shanghai to Stockholm, from Borneo to Brussels, international investors are desperate to invest in County of Los Angeles bonds. Sound unlikely? It is. But that didn't stop Lehman Brothers issuing a "global" bond for the county in October. |
