高盛獨家回應：澳對沖基金起訴意在轉嫁損失

鳳凰網財經訊  針對澳大利亞對沖基金Basis Yield Alpha Fund周三向高盛集團發起的訴訟，高盛向鳳凰網發來聲明予以回應，稱對方的訴訟目的是為了轉嫁投資損失，以下為高盛聲明全文。

Basis作為世界上經驗最豐富的CDO投資者之一的對沖基金, 企圖借由該訴訟誤導視聽，把自己的投資損失轉嫁給高盛。在進行Timberwolf交易時，Basis明確申明自己不會依賴高盛，而且這一決策也包含在Basis所簽署的協議之中。Basis以其認為有吸引力的市場價位進行投資。這些價位明顯低于相關證券的面值，而且與同期購買相同Timberwolf證券的其他投資者支付的價格相當。Basis現在為彌補其損失提出了虛假的指控，聲稱自己在交易和市場狀況等方面受到誤導。值得注意的一個重要事實是高盛也持有大量Timberwolf的敞口并因而損失了數億美元。我們認為此項訴訟沒有法律依據。
 
               
    The lawsuit is a misguided attempt by Basis, a hedge fund that was one of the world’s most experienced CDO investors, to shift its investment losses to Goldman Sachs.  At the time of the Timberwolf transaction, Basis specifically stated that it would not place any reliance on Goldman Sachs, and this decision formed part of the agreement Basis signed. Basis made its investment at market levels -- levels that it deemed attractive. These levels were substantially below the face value of the securities and consistent with where other investors were purchasing the same Timberwolf securities during the same time period. Basis is now trying to recoup its losses based on false allegations that it was misled about aspects of the transaction and market conditions. A material fact worth noting is that Goldman Sachs also had substantial exposure to Timberwolf securities and lost several hundred million dollars as a result.  We believe the lawsuit is without merit.
