1 No. 131: Bankers Trust Corporation, &c. v. New York City Department of Finance, et al. Bankers Trust then filed a claim with the City reporting the terms of the agreement with the State, pursuant to Administrative Code section 11-646(e), and seeking a refund for the years 1986, 1987 and 1993, of $1.2 million, $1.3 million, and $3.8 million, respectively. Following plaintiff's motion for summary judgment, Supreme Court agreed with Bankers Trust that it was not required to exhaust administrative remedies because the issue was the interpretation and application of statutes that did not involve the special expertise of the relevant agencies, and the exhaustion of administrative remedies would cause irreparable harm. Bankers Trust, however, did not dispute that it was subject to the tax on banking corporations, and that the City had the authority to audit the refund claims. www.law.cornell.edu /nyctap/I03_0142.htm   (2059 words)

Matter of Bankers Trust Co. of N.Y. (2004 NY Slip Op 50135(U)) Bankers Trust was trustee of the trusts, but in 1999, after that bank merged with Deutche Bank, Bankers Trust Company of New York ("BTNY") was appointed successor trustee.

Bankers Trust Corp. v New York City Dept. of Fin. (2003 NYSlipOp 18876) Bankers Trust then filed a claim with the City reporting the terms of the agreement with the State, pursuant to Administrative Code § 11-646 (e), and seeking a refund for the years 1986, 1987 and 1993, of approximately $1.2 million, $1.3 million, and $3.8 million, respectively. It is true that in its complaint, Bankers Trust argued that the City acted "wholly beyond the [City's] authority." However, the proper characterization of Bankers Trust's argument is that the Department improperly applied the relevant statute in computing a refund. With the 17% deduction Bankers Trust claimed for that year in its state and city tax forms, entire net income was reduced to $326,948,726. www.courts.state.ny.us /reporter/3dseries/2003/2003_18876.htm   (2060 words)

10/16/95 THE BANKERS TRUST TAPES Much of the dispute between Bankers Trust and its clients that suffered losses may depend on whether the clients were simply naive and should have known what they were getting into or whether Bankers Trust deliberately deceived them. Bankers Trust's court filings include a transcript of an October, 1993, conversation between Bankers and P&G in which Bankers apparently shows a P&G treasury employee how to calculate its rate on the Nov. 2 derivative.

Bankers Trust-Alex. Brown deal boosts brokerage stocks   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15) While Bankers Trust is classified as a commercial bank, it has no branch network and is already more like a Wall Street firm.

Bankers Trust Chairman Frank Newman doubted that many other potential bank-brokerage deals would be able to find the same complementary fit. www.chron.com /content/chronicle/business/97/04/08/bankers.2-0.html   (513 words)

Procter and Gamble versus Bankers Trust: Caveat Emptor - Thunderbird If it was to settle its $200 million lawsuit against Bankers Trust Company (Bankers Trust) out of court, it had to do so soon. Although finance students are routinely schooled in the construction and valuation of various financial derivatives, including foreign exchange and interest rate swaps, they rarely see how these specific instruments fit within the corporate frameworks of financial policy and procedure. The failure of Bankers Trust to divulge all of the valuation details behind the transaction sold to Procter and Gamble in 1993-94, and the failure of PandG's treasury staff to pursue their own valuation and mark-to-market due diligence on the transactions entered into, combine to create a situation in which disaster was an eventuality. www.thunderbird.edu /about_thunderbird/case_series/2005/_05-0001.htm   (374 words)

S&P Cuts Ratings on Deutsche Bank; Raises Bankers Trust Also, Bankers Trust's expertise in the high yield market, and corporate finance, could prove beneficial in areas that are commonly regarded as key growth areas in the unified European Market. In addition, the risks involved with the Bankers Trust acquisition remain significant, especially considering Deutsche Bank's mixed results in the past in integrating successfully the different cultures of its investment and commercial banking activities, in order to leverage its customer relationships. The ratings on Bankers Trust and its units remain one notch below those of Deutsche Bank to reflect uncertainties about the final legal structure, the success of the integration process, and the future performance of the significantly reconfigured organization. www.prnewswire.com /cgi-bin/stories.pl?ACCT=105&STORY=/www/story/05-17-1999/0000940741   (633 words)
