Bank Has Hissy Fit After Being Sold CDOs

The Times: Germans accuse UBS of sub-prime ‘mis-selling’

"ONE of Germany’s biggest financial institutions is to sue UBS, the Swiss banking giant, claiming it was mis-sold hundreds of millions of pounds worth of sub-prime securities.

The action is expected to trigger a wave of similar lawsuits across world financial centres as institutions seek recompense for losses incurred from buying complex financial instruments that are now worth a fraction of their original price." I think I can safely say that we will see more of this in future.
