The trustee signed the settlement in order to
The trustee appointed to recover money stolen by the New York financier Bernard Madoff has reached a multibillion-dollar settlement with the estate of [10] a man identified as the biggest single beneficiary of the fraud. [9]It means about half the money lost in the swindle will ultimately be recouped.
The settlement represents something of a coup for the trustee Irving Picard. After the collapse of Bernard Madoff’s investment firm in 2008, he was given the task of recovering money lost by investors, who’d unwittingly put their cash into the giant Ponzi scheme. Since then he’s launched a wave of litigation against people and businesses deemed to have profited from the fraud. Chief among them was Jeffry Picower, who was a long-term investor in Bernard Madoff s funds. Over the course of three and a half decades, he withdrew some $7bn, substantially more than his initial investment. His widow has now pledged to return every penny he received.
选项
A、invest in Bernard Madoff.
B、recover money lost in Bernard Madoff.
C、benefit from the Ponzi scheme.
D、withdraw money invested in Bernard Madoff.
答案
B
解析
信息推断题。新闻首句即提到,负责找回被纽约金融家麦道夫窃取的资金的信托人与一名男子达成数十亿美元的协议,接下来说,这意味着在这次诈骗案中损失的一半的资金可以重新挽回。由此可以看出,签协议是为了找回投资在麦道夫公司的资金,答案为[B]。
