Fund Manager Pleads Guilty in New York Pension Probe


By Erik Larson and David Scheer

April 15 (Bloomberg) -- Barrett Wissman , a Dallas hedge fund manager, pleaded guilty to securities fraud as part of an investigation of corruption at New York’s $122 billion pension fund, state officials said.

Wissman, 46, an executive of HFV Asset Management LP, also agreed to a $12 million settlement as part of the probe of illegal kickbacks to arrange pension-fund investments for hedge funds and private-equity firms, according to New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo . Today, Cuomo announced charges against former New York State Liberal Party Chairman Ray Harding as part of the two-year-old investigation.

“This goes to the heart of public integrity,” Cuomo said today in a conference call. “It’s people’s retirement benefits that the state was holding in trust. If that fund is diminished, it’s going to have to be replenished by taxpayers.”

Wissman’s guilty plea and the complaint against Harding are directly related to claims filed last month by Cuomo and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission against former New York Deputy Comptroller David Loglisci and political adviser Hank Morris . Wissman is a longtime family friend of Loglisci, according to the SEC complaint.

Do Investment Bankers have to work in New York on Wall Street?

I'm asking this question because I might want to be an Investment Banker one day but one thing is that I don't really want to work in New York cause It's too conjested so I was wondering are there other Investment Banking offices in other states?


Investment bankers are like you know what, they are all over the place,

Most major cities have large banks that have investment banking departments as well as some of the major brokerage firms.

You may luck out, and find some smaller banks (or B/Ds) in the burbs that do a considerable amount of Investment banking. These are catering to the growing areas that they're in, or they too wanted to get out of the rush of the big cities.

You can start checking with some of the big name banks in your area or the area you may like. There is a reference book called the "Securities Dealers of North America" (the red book), the book list broker/dealers in geograhical areas, take a look at your local library,

Good luck on your search, if you want bad enough you can do it.

Where should I form an LLC if I live in New York and I'm buying an investment rental property in Tennessee?

I'm buying a rental property in Nashville, Tennessee. I live in New York and I would like to form an LLC soon. Should I form an LLC in New York or Tennessee?


You probably would do best forming in NY. There is only a small annual fee to NY for the LLC, something like $50. You would be required to pay tax to NY since you are a NY resident. Any tax that your might pay to Tennessee would be eligible for credit against NY taxes. On rental properties, unless you have partners, it might be easier to merely file a schedule E on your personal tax return form 1040 without the expense of setting up the LLC. Suggest you speak to a lawyer as to whether the LLC would have any limited liability benefit.
