Debt puts German banks in a bind: financial rescue given state-owned Sachsen LB reflects conduit problem

Article Abstract:

Germany's Sachsen LB, a state-owned bank, became the nation's second bank to need assistance in the wake of problems in the credit market. A consortium of banks has provided Sachsen with a bail-out. The difficulties involve conduits, or affiliates that hold loans off of banks' balance sheets, due to the asset-backed commercial paper market.
