  • Descrição: Reluctant to set aside a lot of cash for future liabilities, life insurers parked them in special-purpose subsidiaries, injecting some of their own cash plus a lot from outside investors willing to buy notes issued by the subs. Financial firms like JPMorgan Chase were contracted to manage the raised capital. And the financial experts invested the subsidiaries' cash in subprime securities. In May Ambac Financial Group, which guaranteed $900 million of the notes in a $2.1 billion deal involving Bermuda reinsurer Scottish Re, sued JPMorgan for $1 billion for gross negligence, claiming JPMorgan's subprime investments were misbegotten.
