It’s not just IRS: the embedded lawsuit option in FX options
Walter Kurtz at Sober Look had a great piece a few weeks ago, where he wryly suggested a way to make money if you don’t like that IRS the bank’s sold you: default on the payments and sue the bank. (Note: this is not an actual way to make money, and also not a good idea if you don’t like angry traders hunting you down.) The “sue the bank” option has a long and storied history in corporate hedging circles.
