Trader Jérôme Kerviel acknowledged Tuesday his "share of responsibility" in the record losses of Société Générale while refusing to be "the scapegoat" of the French bank, in an exclusive interview with AFP.

"We lose the notion of amounts when we are engaged in this kind of profession. It is dematerialized. We let ourselves be carried away a little", justified the trader who has engaged in the name of Société Générale positions exceeding 50 Billions of Euro's.
"I never had a personal ambition in this affair. The object was to make the bank earn money," he added.
White plaid shirt and jeans, the most famous trader in the world, smiling, expressed himself in a calm voice: "I am not suicidal nor depressed", he launched in response to those who have it. presented as unstable.

News from Uncle Kerviel and tolerances from SG !!!!:

*SocGen's tolerance for risk-taking at the heart of the Kerviel affair
While Société Générale blames one man for its losses, Several accounts, including that of Jérôme Kerviel, question the bank's excessive tolerance for taking risks to maximize its profit and thus ensure its independence.
For Société Générale, the loss of 4,9 billion falls on a "single man who had the intelligence to escape all control procedures".
Affirming that the job of a bank was not to speculate, its CEO Daniel Bouton considered that the "normal" controls had worked but that the trader had made them "inoperative" by concealing his speculative positions.
Asked by AFP, an official of Société Générale passed through the inspection believes that the main error of the bank is "not to have been sufficiently paranoid" by recruiting and then authorizing Mr. Kerviel, former controller of the "middle- office "(market monitoring) to be placed in the front office".
In his defense, Jérôme Kerviel argued that other traders, but at a "lower level", also took liberties with their risk limits and that his hierarchy turned a blind eye to his practices as long as he was "in the positive". "Not seen, not taken. Caught, hanged", he summed up.
