MF Global collapse shows Wall Street needs tougher rules

MF Global's Company Overview and Financial Overview, both dated October 2011, tell a story quite different from that of a company about to plunge into insolvency. At the end of September, it touted $41.05 billion in net assets, $3.7 billion in available liquidity and $2.5 billion in total capital. It was able to sell $325 million in unsecured notes in August. It claimed "solid risk management," a "strong capital position," "strong liquidity" and an "extremely liquid and high quality balance sheet."

Although $41 billion sounds like a lot, MF Global was a small player compared with Lehman Brothers or Bear Stearns. MF Global is small enough to fail, and while capital markets are unlikely to seize up, investors, lenders and counterparties are likely to lose a good deal of money. These days, investors in companies such as MF Global are not just rich individuals and entities; they are often pension funds and other entities that pool the funds of small investors.
