Fortress Sub-Prime Lender Suspends Wholesale Originations

Alternative investments giant Fortress Investment Group is cutting off its sub-prime pipeline just over a year after buying sub-prime lender Nationstar Mortgage.

Fortress bought Dallas-based Nationstar last July from homebuilder Centex Corp.
