ANOTHER UPDATE

News Alert
from The Wall
Street
Journal

MF Global admitted to federal regulators that
money had been diverted out of customer accounts, according to a federal
official who said the move violated the law.

The Wall Street
brokerage, which filed for bankruptcy protection Monday, acknowledged the
shortfall amid mounting questions from regulators as they went through the
firm’s books while trying to facilitate a sale to Interactive Brokers Group, the
official said. Regulators still don’t know where the customer funds went, who
directed the move or how widespread the practice was, the official said.
