Bloomberg reports that the agency liquidating Bernie Madoff's company has committed $231 million to pay 543 claims by his victims. Depending on how much money can be recovered from Madoff's assets, claimants may be able to receive up to $2.74 billion later on. Thousands more claims are waiting to be evaluated, and the deadline to file one is tomorrow -- so if you happen to be one of his victims, you can still hand-deliver it to AlixPartners LLB by midnight tomorrow.
It's a far cry from how much money was actually lost, but hey -- at least it's something.
