ContiFinancial and its disastrous foray into subprime lending

I came to this Wikipedia article to read up on the disastrous ContiFinancial foray into subprime lending in the 1990's which ended in disaster when the Asian financial mess occurred in 1998, but there is nothing here about it. Can somebody please write something on this? I remember reading where it was their subprime inventory which caused the Fribourgs to drop out of the Forbes 400. But nothing here - no mention of subprime. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.143.155.45 (talk) 11:09, 15 June 2010 (UTC)

Blacklisted Links Found on the Main Page

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:
