Best Answer

Suppose in the New York stock exchange in Wall Street, the full company name flashed across to stock brokers who are frantically trying to sell and buy stock shares. By using abbreviations, it reduces the need for a lengthy name and makes it easier for stock exchange to occur quickly. Much like how one would address someone "Mr. Smith" instead of "Mister Smith."

The car is leased GMAC is bankrupt and the Hummer dealer closed shop and left bc they bankrupt What do you do?

Just send your payment to where it goes. The dealer wasn't involved after the sale...and isn't now. GMAC (and whatever of their many, many sub companies are involved in your finance), financial position is irrelevant to you...you owe them the $, the court and creditors will assure they are paid. That company is BK, not you...your responsibility to pay is not changed by their filing...just like your filing BK wouldn't mean your employer, or bank, or stock investment doesn't have to pay you what they owe you.
