Something Funny Happened on the Way to Court

News about the alleged forex manipulation has sucked most of the media's attention and focus away from the Libor and ISDAfix scandals.  I just saw, however, this recent piece from Global Insurance Intelligence discussing the potential payouts on the ISDAfix scandals. The article suggests that the payouts for ISDAfix could dwarf the costs of Libor and forex but does not share any analysis as to how they got to that conclusion. I don't have a crystal ball telling me whether there will in fact be any payouts on ISDAfix and if so what they will be, but this is a welcome distraction of the steady drumbeat of news about forex traders at big banks being suspended or fired.
