Abstract: Since 1999, New York state Attorney General, Eliot Spitzer has been carrying out a battery of investigations against several companies spanning many industries. One such industry that bore the brunt of his crusade was investment banking. Wall Street firms like Merrill Lynch, Alliance Capital and Marsh & McClennan had to do a lot of explanation regarding their business practices. Spitzer's methods of investigation are drawing criticism from Wall Street firms and regulatory bodies that question his motives and authority. |
