Jerome Kerviel has been named as the rogue trader behind the 4.9 Billion Euro ($7.4 Billion) fraud at French bank Societe Generale. According to his former professors, he was an undistinguished student at the University Lumiére Lyon 2. His former coworkers also agree he was "not a star", which has led some to question if he is in fact the mastermind behind the trading scandal, or merely a scapegoat. Kerviel has stated that his superiors were aware of what he was doing, but chose to ignore it. On Wednesday, March 12, it was announced that a second trader had been arrested in connection with the scandal.
