Well, I think Lehman Brothers became bankrupt as a large part of their loan portfolio comprised of loans for buying real estate. and the meltdown in the property market in US the values of properties kind of becamw lesser than the the value of loan outstanding.

Due to this most of the loans could not be paid back, and this leading to bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers.

The loan theory is probably, false. Shortly, after Lehman came into light of financial troubles. The media discuss the possiblity that a few large clients turned on Lehman causing financial crisis. Lehman failed to secure loan funding and the Fed did not increase liquidity immediate to avert the crisis.
