Morgan Stanley suffered a data breach after an employee accidentally emailed an internal document detailing its investment banking pipeline. The document contains sensitive information on more than 100 deals.
The leak covers projects across Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. It identifies potential initial public offerings in China, South Korea, and India.
The list details private equity and pension funds backing the involved companies. It also reveals information on projects currently on hold. Bloomberg News verified the breach after reviewing a copy of the leaked document.
