What do you make of this scam?

Something's fishy, obviously.

I can't imagine how an "investment" in Global reaped that much profit for CIBC.

One missing piece is CIBC's ownership of the old Oppenheimer investment/brokerage house. Another is any kinks in the Canadian tax code.

I just don't see how we can believe any major corporation or bank when they give us an accounting of figures.
