Go out to euro-clear, here specifically http://www.euroclear.com/wps/portal/!ut/p/.cmd/cs/.ce/7_0_A/.s/7_0_E0/_s.7_0_A/7_0_E0 ( or http://snipurl.com/136oq ). Do a search for conversion solutions, you get one listing. Ok no keep that in your head and go back a page, do a search for some other well known banks and some other not well known banks like one of the private banks in your town. You'll find records for chase, Fidelity, Wells Fargo, BofA but you won't find your downtown private bank. hmmm. Why would that be? oh yeah, euro-clear requires you to have 200 million to have an account. Hmm.. so CSHD is listed in their system but your little private bank is not. That must mean CSHD has ATLEAST 200 million in bonds.
