In the 1980s, Madoff's market-maker division traded up to 5% of the total volume made on the NYSE.<a href="#cite_note-nytimes_122408-21">[21]</a> Madoff was "the first prominent practitioner"<a href="#cite_note-FinInfo-30">[30]</a> of <a href="/wiki/Payment_for_order_flow" title="Payment for order flow">payment for order flow</a>, paying brokers to execute their clients' orders through his brokerage, a practice some have called a "legal <a href="/wiki/Kickback_(bribery)" title="Kickback (bribery)">kickback</a>".<a href="#cite_note-kickback-31">[31]</a> This practice gave Madoff the distinction of being the largest dealer in NYSE-listed stocks in the U.S., trading about 15% of transaction volume.<a href="#cite_note-TnEHarris-32">[32]</a> Academics have questioned the ethics of these payments.<a href="#cite_note-Harv1-33">[33]</a><a href="#cite_note-ND1-34">[34]</a> Madoff has argued that these payments did not alter the price that the customer received.<a href="#cite_note-MaddofTalks-35">[35]</a> He viewed payments for order flow as a normal business practice: "If your girlfriend goes to buy stockings at a supermarket, the racks that display those stockings are usually paid for by the company that manufactured the stockings. Order flow is an issue that attracted a lot of attention but is grossly overrated."<a href="#cite_note-MaddofTalks-35">[35]</a> By 2000, Madoff Securities, one of the top traders of US securities, held approximately $300 million in assets ($531 million in 2023).<a href="#cite_note-nytimes_122408-21">[21]</a> The business occupied three floors of the <a href="/wiki/Lipstick_Building" title="Lipstick Building">Lipstick Building</a> in Manhattan, with the investment management division on the 17th floor, referred to as the "<a href="/wiki/Hedge_fund" title="Hedge fund">hedge fund</a>", employing a staff of fewer than 24.<a href="#cite_note-17th_floor-36">[36]</a> Madoff also ran a branch office in London that employed 28 people, separate from Madoff Securities. The company handled investments for his family of approximately <a href="/wiki/Pound_sterling" title="Pound sterling">£</a>80 million.<a href="#cite_note-mayfair-37">[37]</a> Two remote cameras installed in the London office permitted Madoff to monitor events from New York.<a href="#cite_note-nytimes_1.24.09-38">[38]</a> After 41 years as a <a href="/wiki/Sole_proprietorship" title="Sole proprietorship">sole proprietorship</a>, Madoff converted his firm into a <a href="/wiki/Limited_liability_company" title="Limited liability company">limited liability company</a> in 2001, with himself as the sole shareholder.<a href="#cite_note-39">[39]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Modus_operandi">Modus operandi</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Madoff_investment_scandal&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Modus operandi">edit</a>]</div> In 1992, Bernard Madoff explained his purported strategy to The Wall Street Journal. He said his returns were really nothing special, given that the <a href="/wiki/S%26P_500_Index" class="mw-redirect" title="S&P 500 Index">Standard & Poors 500</a>-<a href="/wiki/Stock_index" class="mw-redirect" title="Stock index">stock index</a> generated an average <a href="/wiki/Annual_return" class="mw-redirect" title="Annual return">annual return</a> of 16.3% between November 1982 and November 1992. "I would be surprised if anybody thought that matching the S&P over 10 years was anything outstanding." The majority of <a href="/wiki/Money_manager" class="mw-redirect" title="Money manager">money managers</a> actually trailed the S&P 500 during the 1980s. The Journal concluded Madoff's use of <a href="/wiki/Futures_contract" title="Futures contract">futures</a> and <a href="/wiki/Option_(finance)" title="Option (finance)">options</a> helped cushion the returns against the market's ups and downs. Madoff said he made up for the cost of the <a href="/wiki/Hedge_(finance)" title="Hedge (finance)">hedges</a>, which could have caused him to trail the stock market's returns, with stock-picking and <a href="/wiki/Market_timing" title="Market timing">market timing</a>.<a href="#cite_note-WSJ-Smith-1992-24">[24]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Purported_strategy">Purported strategy</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Madoff_investment_scandal&action=edit&section=3" title="Edit section: Purported strategy">edit</a>]</div> Madoff's sales pitch was an <a href="/wiki/Investment_strategy" title="Investment strategy">investment strategy</a> consisting of purchasing <a href="/wiki/Blue-chip_stock" class="mw-redirect" title="Blue-chip stock">blue-chip stocks</a> and taking options contracts on them, sometimes called a split-strike conversion or a <a href="/wiki/Collar_(finance)" title="Collar (finance)">collar</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Forbes12.23-40">[40]</a> "Typically, a position will consist of the ownership of 30–35 <a href="/wiki/S%26P_100" title="S&P 100">S&P 100</a> stocks, most correlated to that index, the sale of <a href="/wiki/Out-of-the-money" class="mw-redirect" title="Out-of-the-money">out-of-the-money</a> '<a href="/wiki/Call_option" title="Call option">calls</a>' on the index and the purchase of out-of-the-money '<a href="/wiki/Put_option" title="Put option">puts</a>' on the index.

The 'puts', funded in large part by the sales of the 'calls', limit the portfolio's downside." In his 1992 "Avellino and Bienes" interview with The Wall Street Journal, Madoff discussed his supposed methods: In the 1970s, he had placed invested funds in "convertible <a href="/wiki/Arbitrage" title="Arbitrage">arbitrage</a> positions in <a href="/wiki/Large-cap" class="mw-redirect" title="Large-cap">large-cap</a> stocks, with promised investment returns of 18% to 20%",<a href="#cite_note-Forbes12.23-40">[40]</a> and in 1982, he began using <a href="/wiki/Futures_contracts" class="mw-redirect" title="Futures contracts">futures contracts</a> on the stock index, and then placed <a href="/wiki/Put_option" title="Put option">put options</a> on futures during the <a href="/wiki/1987_stock_market_crash" class="mw-redirect" title="1987 stock market crash">1987 stock market crash</a>.<a href="#cite_note-Forbes12.23-40">[40]</a> A few analysts performing <a href="/wiki/Due_diligence" title="Due diligence">due diligence</a> had been unable to replicate the Madoff fund's past returns using historic price data for U.S. stocks and options on the indexes.<a href="#cite_note-41">[41]</a><a href="#cite_note-Berenson-42">[42]</a> Barron's raised the possibility that Madoff's returns were most likely due to <a href="/wiki/Front_running" title="Front running">front running</a> his firm's brokerage clients.<a href="#cite_note-Arvedlund-43">[43]</a> Mitchell Zuckoff, professor of journalism at <a href="/wiki/Boston_University" title="Boston University">Boston University</a> and author of Ponzi's Scheme: The True Story of a Financial Legend, says that "the 5% payout rule", a federal law requiring <a href="/wiki/Private_foundation_(United_States)" title="Private foundation (United States)">private foundations</a> to pay out 5% of their funds each year, allowed Madoff's Ponzi scheme to go undetected for a long period since he managed money mainly for charities. Zuckoff notes, "For every $1 billion in foundation investment, Madoff was effectively on the hook for about $50 million in withdrawals a year. If he was not making real investments, at that rate the <a href="/wiki/Principal_sum" class="mw-redirect" title="Principal sum">principal</a> would last 20 years.

The next major concern about Madoff's operation was raised in May 2000, when <a href="/wiki/Harry_Markopolos" title="Harry Markopolos">Harry Markopolos</a>, a financial analyst and portfolio manager at Boston options trader Rampart Investment Management, alerted the SEC about his suspicions. A year earlier, Rampart had learned that <a href="/wiki/Access_International_Advisors" title="Access International Advisors">Access International Advisors</a>, one of its trading partners, had significant investments with Madoff. Markopolos' bosses at Rampart asked him to design a product that could replicate Madoff's returns.<a href="#cite_note-NoOne-13">[13]</a> However, Markopolos concluded that Madoff's numbers didn't add up. After four hours of trying and failing to replicate Madoff's returns, Markopolos concluded Madoff was a fraud. He told the SEC that based on his analysis of Madoff's returns, it was mathematically impossible for Madoff to deliver them using the strategies he claimed to use. In his view, there were only two ways to explain the figures—either Madoff was <a href="/wiki/Front_running" title="Front running">front running</a> his order flow, or his wealth management business was a massive Ponzi scheme. This submission, along with three others, passed with no substantive action from the SEC.<a href="#cite_note-60Minutes-88">[88]</a><a href="#cite_note-89">[89]</a> At the time of Markopolos' initial submission, Madoff managed assets from between $3 billion and $6 billion, which would have made his wealth management business the largest <a href="/wiki/Hedge_fund" title="Hedge fund">hedge fund</a> in the world even then. The culmination of Markopolos' analysis was his third submission, a detailed 17-page memo entitled The World's Largest Hedge Fund is a Fraud.<a href="#cite_note-90">[90]</a> He had also approached The Wall Street Journal about the existence of the Ponzi scheme in 2005, but its editors decided not to pursue the story.<a href="#cite_note-91">[91]</a> The memo specified 30 "red flags" based on a little over 14 years of Madoff trades. The biggest red flag was that Madoff reported only seven losing months during this time, and those losses were statistically insignificant. This result produced a return stream that rose steadily upward with almost no downticks, represented graphically by a nearly-perfect 45-degree angle. Markopolos argued that anyone who knows the math of the markets would know that such a distribution "simply doesn't exist in finance," since the markets were far too volatile even under the best of conditions for this to be possible.<a href="#cite_note-NoOne-13">[13]</a> Later, Markopolos testified before Congress that this would be like a baseball player <a href="/wiki/Batting_average_(baseball)" title="Batting average (baseball)">batting .966 for the season</a>, compared to .300 to .400 for elite players, "and no one suspecting a cheat".<a href="#cite_note-Time1-92">[92]</a> In part, the memo concluded: "Bernie Madoff is running the world's largest unregistered hedge fund. He's organized this business as a 'hedge <a href="/wiki/Fund_of_funds" title="Fund of funds">fund of funds</a>' privately labeling their own hedge funds which Bernie Madoff secretly runs for them using a split-strike conversion strategy getting paid only trading <a href="/wiki/Commission_(remuneration)" title="Commission (remuneration)">commissions</a> which are not disclosed. If this is not a regulatory dodge, I do not know what is." Markopolos declared that Madoff's "unsophisticated <a href="/wiki/Investment_management" title="Investment management">portfolio management</a>" was either a Ponzi scheme or <a href="/wiki/Front_running" title="Front running">front running</a><a href="#cite_note-Time1-92">[92]</a> (buying stock for his own account based on knowledge of his clients' orders), and concluded it was most likely a Ponzi scheme.<a href="#cite_note-wsj_investigations-78">[78]</a> Markopolos later testified to Congress that to deliver 12% annual returns to the investor, Madoff needed to earn an extraordinary 16% gross on a regular basis, so as to distribute a 4% fee to the feeder fund managers, whom Madoff needed to secure new victims, which encouraged the feeder funds to be "willfully blind, and not get too intrusive".<a href="#cite_note-MarkTest-83">[83]</a> Though Markopolos's findings were neglected by regulators he did persuade some professional investors. Joel Tillinghast, a mutual fund manager at <a href="/wiki/Fidelity_Investments" title="Fidelity Investments">Fidelity Investments</a>, had been intrigued by anecdotes of Madoff's steady gains. But after a 2000 meeting with Markopolos he became convinced "nothing in Madoff's ostensible strategy made sense."<a href="#cite_note-93">[93]</a> In 2001, financial journalist <a href="/wiki/Erin_Arvedlund" title="Erin Arvedlund">Erin Arvedlund</a> wrote an article for <a href="/wiki/Barron%27s_(newspaper)" class="mw-redirect" title="Barron's (newspaper)">Barron's</a> entitled "Don't Ask, Don't Tell",<a href="#cite_note-Arvedlund-43">[43]</a> questioning Madoff's secrecy and wondering how he obtained such consistent returns.

To pay off those investors, Madoff needed new money from other investors. However, in November, the balance in the account dropped to dangerously low levels. Only $300 million in new money had come in, but customers had withdrawn $320 million. He had barely enough in the account to meet his redemption payroll on November 19.

The Chase account, which at one point in 2008 had well over $5 billion, was down to only $234 million.

He also noted Madoff's crimes were "off the charts" since federal sentencing guidelines for fraud only go up to $400 million in losses; Madoff swindled his investors out of several times that.<a href="#cite_note-evil-231">[231]</a> Prosecutors estimated that, at the very least, Madoff was responsible for a loss of $13 billion, more than 32 times the federal cap;<a href="#cite_note-FedSentenceMemo-226">[226]</a> the commonly quoted loss of $65 billion is more than 162 times the cap. Chin said "I have a sense Mr. Madoff has not done all that he could do or told all that he knows," noting that Madoff failed to identify accomplices, making it more difficult for prosecutors to build cases against others. Chin dismissed Sorkin's plea for leniency, stating that Madoff made substantial loans to family members and moved $15 million from the firm to his wife's account shortly before confessing.<a href="#cite_note-232">[232]</a> Picard also said that Madoff's failure to provide substantial assistance complicated efforts to locate assets. A former federal prosecutor suggested Madoff would have had the possibility of a sentence with <a href="/wiki/Parole" title="Parole">parole</a> if he fully cooperated with investigators, but Madoff's silence implied that there were other accomplices in the fraud, which led the judge to impose the maximum sentence.<a href="#cite_note-233">[233]</a><a href="#cite_note-234">[234]</a> Chin also ordered Madoff to pay $170 billion in restitution.<a href="#cite_note-235">[235]</a><a href="#cite_note-236">[236]</a><a href="#cite_note-237">[237]</a> Madoff apologized to his victims at the sentencing, saying, "I have left a legacy of shame, as some of my victims have pointed out, to my family and my grandchildren.
