Did the Fed Bail out Ltcm

Technically, the Fed didn’t bail out LTCM. It used no federal funds. It merely brokered a better deal than the one Buffett offered. Almost $100 billion worth of derivative positions could have unraveled, according to The Independent.

How much did LTCM lose?

The demise of the firm, Long-Term Capital Management (LTCM), was swift and sudden. In less than one year, LTCM had lost $4.4 billion of its $4.7 billion in capital.
