That's one lesson from a report filed by Michael Missal, appointed by New Century's bankruptcy trustee to investigate the company's problems. Missal wrote that former New Century general counsel Stergios Theologides recognized the high risk of subprime mortgages and warned senior managers about it in a memo in the fall of 2004.
