In February, Hansgeorg Hofmann, Dresdner Bank's most senior diplomat, ran out of patience. The tall, go-getting investment banker, who won his spurs at Merrill Lynch and Shearson Lehman in the 1980s, wasn't his normal, jovial self.
He called Dresdner supervisory board chairman Wolfgang Röller. The bank's father-figure heard Hofmann calmly unfold a tale of deceit and subterfuge.
