WHY ATTEND THE SECURITIES LITIGATION EVENT?
The amount of securities litigation being pursued through the courts of England and Wales has increased significantly in the past few years. Headline cases, including the RBS Rights Issue Litigation, the Tesco Litigation and the Lloyds/HBOS Litigation, have been closely followed for developments in the law and procedure affecting securities claims. However, significant uncertainties in the law in this area remain.
The event covers all of the biggest topics of concern to senior practitioners involved in avoiding, preparing for, bringing and defending securities litigation in the UK. The conference will offer an open and balanced discussion from leading experts representing the key stakeholders in securities litigation including specialist solicitors and barristers from both claimant and defendant perspective, in-house counsel for asset managers and issuers, collective redress funders and quantum experts. The most pressing challenges affecting securities litigation will be examined in interactive panel discussion held under Chatham House Rule
