This time the latest victim is West Virginia Gov. Jim Justice who is said to be personally on the hook for nearly $700 million in loans his coal company, Bluestone Resources, took out from now-defunct Greensill Capital.
Greensill packaged the loans and sold them to the $10 billion in supply-chain finance investment funds managed by Credit Suisse Group AG.
WSJ reports that Gov. Justice's Bluestone companies received financing over a three-year period. When the first set of loans matured, Greensill replaced them with new loans in a process that became known as a "cashless roll," according to the Bluestone lawsuit.
