Line spacing problem with \LaTeX{}

Question

When I use \LaTeX{} to show the LaTeX logo, the following line of text is pushed down in order to accommodate the subscript 'E' in LaTeX.

How do I override this? Is there an option I can pass to \LaTeX{} ?

EDIT: Problem was due to horizontal space, not vertical space, and was caused by normal text as well as the \LaTeX{} command.

Short answer: Put \vspace{-0.1cm} after \LaTeX{} (adjust the size of the space to get the effect you want)

Long answer: I am not getting this extra spacing you are referring to, but in any case I can show you an example so you see how you can reduce the space between lines. The example of text I am using (I just got the first .tex document I had, so ignore what is written):

The way the picture is drawn, it implies that the bank doesn't originate loans anymore. Maybe bank are still originators? \LaTeX{} The difference now is that they sell the loans to GSEs and other securitisers and get securities back? Do they also securitise loans?

This is what I get:
