The answer is: the system is owned by the banks.

Even though the name contain the word 'federal' , the federal reserves are not entirely owned by the government.  Several banks owned percentage of ownership to the federal reserve.

Vladimir [108]

Answer:

Debbie Brooks is the one who will suffer the loss for the checks paid with Brook's forged signature.

Explanation:

Debbie Brooks is the one who will suffer the loss for the checks paid with Brook's forged signature because Brooks was supposed to be checking the statement regarding her accounts frequently . By that, she could have discovered that Tingstrom had taken $85,000 from her checking account with Transamerica Financial Advisors and hence be able to sue her.

After Debbies Brooks discovered what Martha had done, she should have have stopped the transaction immediately but instead another year passed before she filed a suit against Transamerica. Hence, she will be one who will suffer from the forged signature.
