New York- based financial guarantee insurer MBIA, Inc. has issued a follow-up bulletin concerning the subpoenas it recently received from the Securities and Exchange Commission and the New York Attorney General's office "requesting information with respect to non-traditional or loss mitigation insurance products developed, offered or sold by MBIA to third parties from January 1, 1998 to the present" (See IJ Website Nov. 19).
