Read this <<In addition, Morgan has provided financing to non-Russian institutional investors and investment funds to invest in Russian assets. These financings are substantially supported by cash and U.S. Treasury collateral. >> Go figure! We have a direct exposure of $160 million (perhaps they will get 5 cdnts on the dollar) and then the indirect exposure is "substantially" supported by cash and US treasury collateral. How much margin they allowed in Russia? -MMV
