German shareholders claim 50bn $


The German newspaper Handelsblatt, who had the ability to check information of the claim collector Epic System, counted that the shareholders of their country claim 50bn$ from Lehman Brothers, the Belgians 453million dollars.
Lehman Brothers is the business bank that went bankrupt just at the beginning of the financial crisis, september 2008. In Germany, the greatest creditors are the central bank of Germany, Deutsche Bank and the BdB, for their institutional financiers. In Belgium Handelsblatt noticed the greatest claims were also those from our greatest banks, such as Dexia, BNP Paribas Fortis and KBC, but also some smaller claimers for 'just' some millions of dollars. You can read about it (and find the photo) here.
