Hundreds of Lehman Brothers minibond holders march on the street demanding a refund during a protest in Hong Kong August 23, 2009. Lehman investors in Hong Kong, Singapore and Indonesia have expressed outrage that the bond-like products they bought were actually complex derivatives that led to huge losses for many of them. The collapse of Lehman Brothers bank in September last year sparked heavy selling in financial stocks.The signs read "Donald Tsang to step down" and "Unsolved Lehman Brothers minibonds".
