Shareholder and Securities Disputes
Expertise in complex shareholder and securities disputes.
Contact usKroll’s experts are highly skilled in providing consulting services and expert testimony in a wide range of securities disputes, including allegations of insider trading, false and misleading disclosures, market manipulation, market competition and many others.
In disputes involving public companies, our experts perform event studies to assist in measuring the economic effects of a triggering event or set of events on the share price of the listed firm, for example, in cases involving alleged accounting misstatements and fraud involving the company. Kroll’s economists can undertake detailed event studies, identify relevant benchmarks, recreate share prices but-for the events, and perform detailed portfolio and claimant modeling to assess the extent of losses incurred by investors during the course of the event.
