InfoSec News: Kerviel Says He Hid Nothing From Societe Generale: http://www.businessweek.com/news/2010-06-08/kerviel-says-he-hid-nothing-from-societe-generale-update2-.html
By Heather Smith and Carol Matlack Bloomberg June 08, 2010
Jerome Kerviel, accused of causing a 4.9 billion-euro ($5.9 billion) loss at Societe Generale SA with unauthorized market bets, told a Paris court he "hid nothing" and that all of his actions were visible to his employer.
Kerviel, 33, answered questions from Judge Dominique Pauthe about his professional history on the first day of his trial today. He is charged with abuse of trust, faking documents and computer hacking related to the bank's losses and faces as many as five years in jail and 375,000 euros in fines.
Kerviel and lawyer Olivier Metzner this month will battle prosecutors and Societe Generale, which is seeking to recoup the losses. The Paris-based bank disclosed the unauthorized bets on Jan. 24, 2008, with then-Chief Executive Officer Daniel Bouton calling Kerviel a "terrorist."
During questioning at today.s hearing, the former trader recounted his education, saying he was "interested in finance" when asked why he focused on market operations, including financial controls, in his master's program. He described his salary and bonus history, telling the judge he knew "strictly nothing" about decisions, such as the one awarding him a bonus of 60,000 euros in 2006.
