NEW YORK (MarketWatch) — Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. has “significantly higher
risk exposures” than its U.S. peers, analysts for ratings agency Standard and
Poor’s said on a conference call Tuesday. Analyst Tanya Azarchs cited Lehman’s
relative business concentration compared to its U.S. peers and said the bank will
experience more muted revenue growth. S&P also said that although it is currently
satisfied with Lehman’s liquidity levels and contigency plans, the bank must be
aware that concerns about its capital are significant “in a marketing environment
where perception becomes reality.”
