Overview
Risk management negligence within the financial services industry contributed to one of the most significant economic crises in the recent history of the United States. During this time, Lehman Brothers, a global financial services company, filed for bankruptcy protection. This created the largest bankruptcy ever within the financial services industry. To complete this assignment, you will need to search the Internet and Strayer databases for information related to Lehman Brothers’ bankruptcy, the financial risk factors that contributed to the failure, and management’s responsibility for the failure. You will use your finance/budgeting and forecasting skills to complete a risk management assessment.
