Lehman Brothers was a global financial services firm that was founded in 1850 and became one of the largest investment banks in the United States. However, it filed for bankruptcy in September 2008, which was a major event in the global financial crisis. Some key points about Lehman Brothers include:
History: Lehman Brothers was founded in Montgomery, Alabama in 1850 by Henry, Emanuel, and Mayer Lehman as a small dry goods store. The company gradually expanded into cotton trading and investment banking.
Growth: Over the years, Lehman Brothers grew to become a major player in the investment banking industry, with a strong presence in areas such as fixed income, equities, and investment management.
Financial crisis: Lehman Brothers was heavily involved in the subprime mortgage market, which was a major contributor to the global financial crisis of 2008. As the value of these assets plummeted, Lehman Brothers found itself in severe financial trouble.
Bankruptcy: On September 15, 2008, Lehman Brothers filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, which was the largest bankruptcy filing in U.S. history at the time. The collapse of Lehman Brothers had a significant impact on the global financial system and is widely regarded as a key event in the financial crisis.
Fallout: The collapse of Lehman Brothers had wide-ranging consequences, including job losses, stock market declines, and a freeze in credit markets. Governments and central banks around the world took various steps to stabilize the financial system and prevent a total collapse of the global economy.

Ten years ago this week, US investment bank Lehman Brothers collapsed, unleashing a global financial crisis. In this special edition of the show, we focus on that crash and the slow climb back to normal. We look back at the economic crisis with Adam Tooze, the author of “Crashed: How a Decade of Financial Crises Changed the World”.
September 15 marks the ten-year anniversary of what became known as “Lehman Weekend”, when US investment bank Lehman Brothers collapsed in the thick of the 2008 subprime mortgage meltdown. It was the biggest bankruptcy in US history, leading up to the world’s worst economic crisis since the 1930s Great Depression.
After the peak of the 2008 financial crisis, millions of people lost their jobs and many also lost their homes. More than three million foreclosures took place in the US, and many more around the world.

8 Crisis On Wall Street: The Week That Shook The World (Part 1)
12 sep. 2018
Offering a sneak peak of the CNBC Original “Crisis On Wall Street: The Week That Shook The World” premiering Wednesday, Sept.12 at 10pm ET/PT.
Ten years after the fall of Lehman Brothers, CNBC has produced the definitive televised account of the historic bankruptcy and cascade of events over a September weekend in 2008 that led to the worst financial crisis in generations. In this prime time original documentary, Andrew Ross Sorkin, CNBC anchor and author of the groundbreaking best-seller “Too Big to Fail,” reports on how the nation and the world came as close as ever to a full economic collapse.
The story is told through gripping interviews with those at the highest reaches of the U.S. government as well as the CEOs of the nation’s largest banks who gathered to try to save Lehman Brothers from failure. Wall Street chiefs Jamie Dimon, John Thain, and others describe dramatic, around-the-clock negotiations. Former U.S. Secretary of the Treasury Hank Paulson tells of the desperate moment when he realized that a Lehman bankruptcy could bring down the world’s financial system.
Could a financial crisis of this magnitude happen again? Sorkin puts that question time and again to the people gathered for this CNBC documentary, who shouldered the fate of the world’s finances and who recall the nightmare scenario they faced down ten years ago.
“It would be breadlines across the country for a generation,” former president of the N.Y. Federal Reserve Tim Geithner told Sorkin. “We did feel that we were making choices and faced with outcomes that would be devastating to the lives of hundreds of millions of people.”

12 Best Documentary of the Housing Market Crash (of 2020?) | Inside the Meltdown | Behind the Big Short
19 mei 2017
MELTDOWN – The Men Who Crashed The World
The first of a four-part investigation into a world of greed and recklessness that led to financial collapse.
In the first episode of Meltdown, we hear about four men who brought down the global economy: a billionaire mortgage-seller who fooled millions; a high-rolling banker with a fatal weakness; a ferocious Wall Street predator; and the power behind the throne.
The crash of September 2008 brought the largest bankruptcies in world history, pushing more than 30 million people into unemployment and bringing many countries to the edge of insolvency. Wall Street turned back the clock to 1929.
But how did it all go so wrong?
Lack of government regulation; easy lending in the US housing market meant anyone could qualify for a home loan with no government regulations in place.
Also, London was competing with New York as the banking capital of the world. Gordon Brown, the British finance minister at the time, introduced ‘light touch regulation’ – giving bankers a free hand in the marketplace.
All this, and with key players making the wrong financial decisions, saw the world’s biggest financial collapse.
