Herbert Smith Freehills has today released the third in our series of webinars on class actions in England and Wales, looking at shareholder class actions. In the presentation Simon Clarke, Harry Edwards and Kirsten Massey discuss the outlook for shareholder group actions in England and Wales, the types of claims (eg under sections 90 and 90A FSMA) and remedies likely to be pursued by shareholder group claimants, and some challenges in bringing and defending these actions. Clients and contacts of the firm can register to access the archived version by contacting Prudence Heidemans.
The webinar is accompanied by the fourth in our series of short guides to class actions in England and Wales, Shareholder class actions, which has been published here (together with our first three editions: (i) Overview of class actions in the English courts; (ii) Group Litigation Orders; and (iii) Data breach class actions).
