Updated August 28, 2017.

Who Suffered the Losses?
Bondholders, shareholders and bank investors paid the biggest losses. Bondholders lost all $30 billion in their investments in WaMu. Most shareholders lost all but two cents per share.

Others lost everything. For example, Texas Pacific Group lost its entire $1.35 billion investment. The WaMu holding company sued JPMorgan Chase for access to $4 billion in deposits. Deutsche Bank sued WaMu for $10 billion in claims for defunct mortgage securities. It said that WaMu knew they were fraudulent and should buy them back. It was unclear whether the FDIC or JPMorgan Chase was liable for many of these claims. TPG lost its $1.35 billion of its investment..
