Paul-Michael Rebus was quoted in the February 18 issue of Total Securitization regarding the decision by Standard Chartered to no longer provide liquidity support to its Whistlejacket structured investment vehicle. The SIV went into receivership after breaching its capital value trigger.  "It seems probable that they will liquidate and start selling off the assets at fire-sale prices.  Therefore, it seems fair to make the assumption that the investors are going to end up losing money, along with a lot of service providers down the line," said Mr. Rebus.
