Underwritten in 2007, by August of 2008, according to Fitch as reported by Reuters, “96.8% of the portfolio [was] rated below investment grade, including 89.2% of the portfolio rated ‘CCC+’ or below.” The Lexington Capital Funding III CDO was just one of many CDO investments that were underwritten in 2007 only to suffer greatly and in some cases deteriorate completely over the next 18 months.

Since the dust began to settle after 2008, there have been numerous cases against financial professionals and brokerage firms to recover losses due to the recommendation and purchase of Collateral Debt Obligation (CDO) investments. In some cases it has been found that the firms and their registered representatives inadequately represented the investments and their associated risks to their clients.
