William Broeksmit built Merrill Lynch's business of trading financial derivatives with Anshu Jain in the early 1990's, and was later hired by Deutsche Bank with Jain for the investment bank of Deutsche Bank. He is found to have committed suicide by hanging, with multiple suicide notes including one to Jain. Coroners say the notes show Broeksmit felt he was being investigated in connection with probes into Deutsche Bank and was being abandoned by colleagues.
