Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP Reminds Investors of Securities Fraud Class Action Lawsuit Filed Against Credit Suisse Group AG

RADNOR, Pa., April 24, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Law firm Kessler Topaz Meltzer & Check, LLP announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Credit Suisse Group AG in the U.S. District Court for the southern borough of New York (NYSE: CS) (“Credit Suisse”) on behalf of those who have purchased or acquired Credit Suisse American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”) between October 29, 2020 and March 31, 2021including (the “Class Period”).

Credit Suisse is a global financial services company based in Zurich, Switzerland. Greensill Capital (“Greensill”), which filed for bankruptcy protection on March 8, 2021, was a financial services company based in the United Kingdom and Australia that focused on the provision of supply chain finance and related services. Archegos Capital Management (“Archegos”) is a family office mutual fund operated by Sung Kook Hwang. Archegos’ investment holdings consist primarily of total return swaps, a financial instrument where the underlying securities are held by the banks that broker the investments.

The complaint alleges that throughout the class period, Defendants had material shortcomings in Credit Suisse’s risk policies and procedures, as well as in its compliance monitoring functions and efforts to allow excessive leverage for high risk clients, including Greensill and Archegos, have been silent about exposing Credit Suisse to billions of dollars in risk in losses.
