## Definition

The risk that - when placing a customer's securities, a syndicate of banks will not be able to fully place them on the market and - the participating institutions will therefore have to take the floated material into their own portfolios. - In August 2008, for example, Citigroup and UBS were left holding the bag on more than seventy percent of a capital increase of around EUR 500 million that they wanted to place on the market for the British banking house Bradford & Bingley, headquartered in Bingley, Yorkshire. The bank, which is mainly active in mortgage financing, floundered in the wake of the financial crisis and was nationalized in September 2008. - See alliances, cross-border, arranger, exit risk, bought deal, squeeze-through, intercreditor agreement, investment banking, syndicated loan, material, flottantes, project finance, risk, operational, risk transfer, risk assumption ground rule, syndicate, securitization, loss-sharing arrangement.
