Shareholder class action settlements are one of many possible end results from lawsuits filed on behalf of investors who claim a financial loss in a particular stock, typically as a result of a violation of securities laws, such as price manipulation, fraud, or improper trading.

Every year, billions of dollars in settlement funds are distributed to eligible shareholders as a result of shareholder class action lawsuits. While the process of filing for class action settlements requires specialized expertise and capabilities, it is not beyond the reach of today’s asset and investment management firms.

What you will learn:

  • Settlement recovery is a complex and resource-intensive process
  • There are four primary stages of the class action claims process
  • Outsourcing can deliver high value
