Quote of the Day: Sheila Bair

Note that MF Global apparently used repo financing to move those high-risk bonds off its balance sheet, making its capital position look better than it was. Hmm. Didn’t Lehman also use the artifice of repo financing to dress up its balance sheet? Why don’t accountants fix this stuff?

— Sheila Bair (former FDIC Chairwoman)
