"Office of Market Intelligence" is a terrible name and likely to end up in a dust bin of other oxymoronic phrases such as "Long Term Capital Management"

Right, and I'll bet the promoted staffer can't explain how a CDO really works (joining the company of Bernanke, Geithner, Bair, Shapiro, Dodd, Frank, etc).

Instead of hiring one of the many unemployed CDO banker/structurer/rating analyst with real experience they promote a long-time staffer?

To make this required market efficient again, they simply need to agree in the terms of the CDS documentation, make it more like an insurance contract, end of story.. Instead of dancing around the bush wih these kinds of appointments!
