SIPC APPLAUDS LEHMAN TRUSTEE ON MILESTONE 100 PERCENT RETURN OF SECURITIES CUSTOMERS’ PROPERTY

WASHINGTON, DC – June 7, 2013

When the distributions commencing today to former securities customers of Lehman Brothers Inc. (LBI) conclude, all securities customer claims will be 100 percent fulfilled, according to James W. Giddens, Trustee for the liquidation of LBI. The Securities Investor Protection Corporation (SIPC) today applauded the hard work of Trustee Giddens and his attorneys in reaching this major milestone.  With the return of all LBI customer property, no advances from the SIPC Fund will be necessary to make LBI securities customers whole.

This also means distributions from the LBI estate will stand as the largest return of property in history to former customers of a broker-dealer following a bankruptcy and liquidation proceeding. (more)
