Abstract: Abstract Most investment banks employ a trading desk, where employees trade securities with the aim of generating profits for the bank. Such proprietary trading is generally very profitable to investment banks, but has also been the subject of substantial losses, especially if traders have been successful in concealing their losses for a longer period of time and accumulating them into amounts that have caused severe losses for the investment bank overall.
