A Hospital Giant Discovers That Collecting Debt Pays Better Than Curing Ills – Bloomberg https://apple.news/A2qsl2Lr3Ti6ORjKGuWSClQ

In 2007, State Street was at the center of a mortgage-backed collateral debt obligation scandal. The company managed a portfolio of shaky mortgage derivatives that had been structured to make money for a hedge fund when the underlying mortgages went belly-up and the derivatives cratered. But State Street didn’t tell the clients who were actually buying the product that was the plan, and as a result pension funds and other investors lost nearly half a billion dollars. In 2012, State Street paid a $5 million penalty for its part on the scam. As recently as last month, State Street agreed to pay $32 million to settle federal charges that it was screwing its own banking clients. http://www.villagevoice.com/news/too-bad-that-statue-of-a-girl-staring-down-the-wall-street-bull-is-a-pr-stunt-by-wall-street-patriarchs-9749317
