Newsinferno.com – Bernard Madoff trustee, Irving Picard, has sued three Fairfield Greenwich Grouphedge funds—Fairfield Sentry Ltd., Greenwich Sentry LP, and Greenwich Sentry Partners LP—in a clawback suit that seeks the return of $3.54 billion to repay victims of Madoff’s historic Ponzi scheme, said Bloomberg News.
Madoff pleaded guilty to 11 fraud counts on March 12. The former chairman of the NASDAQ stock exchange ran an investment advisory business (Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities LLC, or BLMIS), for decades that was, in reality, a Ponzi scheme. Last November, Madoff told his investors that his fund held more than $64 billion, but in reality, it only held a mere fraction of that amount.
