The New York Times is reporting that the SEC has just settled with Citigroup for created Mortgage Market CDO -- luring investors to buy it then betting against the same package it created -- knowing that it would fail. According to NY TIMES -- Citigroup received fees of $34 million for structuring and marketing the transaction and realized net profits of at least $126 million from its short position. The $285 million settlement includes $160 million in disgorgement plus $30 million in prejudgment interest and a $95 million penalty, all of which will be returned to investors.
