Lehman Brothers built up a huge balance sheet exposure to Asian property in the form of loans and investments worth billions of dollars, KPMG, the liquidator of the Hong Kong subsidiaries of the collapsed bank, has revealed. The book value of Lehmans property exposure in Thailand alone is $1bn, while the banks HK units racked up a further $1bn exposure with about 100 loans or direct real estate investments across the region. The subsidiaries also made inter-company transfers worth $5bn to the banks Japanese arm.
