I thought this would be about swimming pool construction. Oh, well.

Dark Pools are the next hedge funds on steroids. They are a mechanism to hide wealth from taxation from Governmental bodies.
EVERY mid to large size Global Investment Company is getting into Dark Pools. The issue here is who's going to take on the risk of processing and reporting the transactions so another subprime mortgage mess isn't created, and how to keep the assets separated from the individual investor so the Government cannot trace assets directly back to their holders for taxation purposes.
BTW, all the Dark Pools currently in existence are setup off-shore, out of reach of the U.S. government to avoid any regulatory repercussions.

Morgan Stanley and Goldman Sachs, bucking a growing trend among the operators of dark pools, are vowing to stay pure. There is nothing "pure" about such a complete lack of transparency. They're a blow-up in the making, as if the world needs another one.
