CASE ALLEGATIONS: Credit Suisse offers wealth management services, including investment advice and discretionary asset management services; risk management solutions, such as managed investment products; and wealth planning, succession planning, and trust services. In October 2022, Credit Suisse began experiencing a sharp increase in customer outflows, or withdrawals of client funds. However, on December 1, 2022, Credit Suisse’s Chairman, defendant Axel P. Lehmann, stated in an interview with Financial Times that customer outflows had not only “completely flattened out,” but had, in fact, “partially reversed.”
The Credit Suisse class action lawsuit alleges that defendants throughout the Class Period made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (i) contrary to prior representations, the sharp increase in customer outflows Credit Suisse began experiencing in October 2022 remained ongoing; (ii) accordingly, Credit Suisse had downplayed the impact of Credit Suisse’s recent series of quarterly losses and risk and compliance failures on liquidity and its ability to retain client funds; and (iii) as a result, Credit Suisse had overstated Credit Suisse’s financial position and/or prospects.
On February 9, 2023, Credit Suisse revealed that large customer outflows had continued through year-end 2022. Specifically, Credit Suisse reported customer outflows of 110.5 billion Swiss francs in the final three months of 2022, a figure which far exceeded market expectations. On this news, the price of Credit Suisse American Depository Shares (“ADSs”) fell by more than 15%.
Then, on February 21, 2023, Reuters reported that the Swiss Financial Market Supervisory Authority was reviewing defendant Lehmann’s previous comments regarding customer outflows. On this news, the price of Credit Suisse ADSs fell an additional 3.3%, further damaging investors.
THE LEAD PLAINTIFF PROCESS: The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 permits any investor who purchased or acquired Credit Suisse securities during the Class Period to seek appointment as lead plaintiff of the Credit Suisse class action lawsuit. A lead plaintiff is generally the movant with the greatest financial interest in the relief sought by the putative class who is also typical and adequate of the putative class. A lead plaintiff acts on behalf of all other class members in directing the Credit Suisse class action lawsuit. The lead plaintiff can select a law firm of its choice to litigate the Credit Suisse class action lawsuit. An investor’s ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff of the Credit Suisse class action lawsuit.
