AmTrust Financial Corp.'s Bankruptcy Filing

A San Francisco bankrutpcy attorney discusses the bankruptcy of AmTrust Financial Corporation...

Recently, AmTrust Financial Corporation filed for bankruptcy. Amtrust has stated that the reason they are filing bankruptcy is because they had invested in home loans that had lost value during the recession. AmTrust Financial Corp is the parent company of AmTrust Bank, however the bank will not be included in the bankruptcy.

Peter Goldberg, CEO of AmTrust, pointed to the economic downturn, mortgage availability, and devalued homes as some of the main factors involved in the need to file bankruptcy. The company is filing for Chapter 11 reorganization, and listed over $169.5 million in debt. Altogether the company has about $11 billion in assets and roughly 1,700 employees.

AmTrust listed debts in the millions of dollars to companies such as Bank of NY Mellon, Allstate Life Insurance, Midland National Life Insurance Co., US Bank, and Phoenix Life Insurance Co. Many private stockholders were also listed.
