"Inside the Securities and Exchange Commission, the organization is bracing for a public outcry, according to people who have recently spoken with some high-ranking officials about the prospect of a WikiLeaks release of bank documents."
Prospect of WikiLeaks Dump Poses Problems for Regulators“Tens of thousands of its internal documents will be exposed on Wikileaks.org with no polite requests for executives’ response or other forewarnings.”
The impending Bank Leak may be:
"...an embarrassment for the United States government, which has spent millions of dollars investigating Wall Street in the last two years without a scalp to show for it."
"The scuttlebutt is that WikiLeaks will reveal documents in which bankers discussed how they duped a client, how they dressed up their numbers or even how they tried to pull one over on regulators."
"Sadly, perhaps cynically, that’s almost to be expected."
"The big surprise would be that such chicanery was documented, in black and white, and that regulators hadn’t found it yet— or worse, they had found it and did nothing about it."
