ISS Securities Class Action Services

Maximizing Securities Class Action Recoveries and Meeting Fiduciary Responsibilities through Claims Filing

Today’s settlement pipeline stands at more than $18 billion and, in all likelihood, a portion of those dollars belong to your fund and its underlying investors. In many cases, the recoveries are substantial and represent a return on your investment. Furthermore, filing claims to recover losses incurred from fraud in securities class action cases is a fiduciary duty. It’s also sound business practice for all investment managers, mutual funds, pension funds and hedge funds. If you don’t file to recover these assets, or your custodian or claims filing service fails to identify and successfully file for a settlement, your fund is literally giving its money away to other investors in the class who do file.
