Research Findings

Research into SEC EDGAR filings reveals that Maiden Lane LLC did not file standard corporate disclosure forms (10-K, 10-Q, 8-K, or ABS-15G) because it was not a typical corporate entity subject to SEC periodic reporting requirements. Instead, Maiden Lane LLC was a special purpose vehicle created by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York in 2008 as part of crisis intervention measures during the Bear Stearns collapse. The LLC was consolidated by the FRBNY and reported through Federal Reserve financial statements rather than SEC corporate filings. While the LLC did establish two asset-backed securities trusts (Maiden Lane Commercial Mortgage Backed Securities Trust 2008-1 and Maiden Lane Asset Backed Securities I Trust 2008-1), these were grantor trusts that held mortgage assets rather than entities requiring ABS-15G asset-backed securities disclosures under Section 15(d). The LLC's financial reporting was handled through Federal Reserve consolidated statements, with annual audited financial statements published by the FRBNY until the vehicle was wound down in 2018, generating approximately $2.5 billion in net gains for the U.S. Treasury.
