Fifteen years ago, the terms “investor protection” and “securities litigation” were virtually unknown outside the United States. Today such disputes are mainstream in Europe and in the Netherlands in particular. Shareholders are much more proactive than they used to be – when the share price of a public limited company plummets, retail and corporate investors will take a very close look at possible redress.
The Netherlands is at the forefront of such litigation and at Rubicon Impact & Litigation we see this as a growth area. Institutions such as pension funds and asset managers are more willing than they once were about participating in such cases and have been increasingly aware of their obligations, especially if third party litigation funding has been arranged.
The lawyers at Rubicon Impact & Litigation have decades of experience in litigation concerning investment losses, covering cases for individual consumers as well as taking action on behalf of large investment funds, such as the Public Investment Corporation (PIC) in the Steinhoff case.
We take a practical approach and can also play a role in facilitating a settlement. We are committed to making the greatest impact for our clients, whether this is achieved through litigation or reaching an out of court deal.
