Q. Why did the Fed step in to organize a rescue for Long Term Capital Management (LTCM) in September 1998, rather than simply letting the trouble fund fail? Was the Fed's action necessary or advisable?

Answer: To evade what the Fed perceived as a probable meltdown of international banking caused by the crisis in Russia and when Asia and Latin American economies were previously facing a steep economic slowdown. The trouble is moral hazard again.
