This webinar posed a number of questions: Does a new policy by the SEC on arbitration of securities law claims spell the end of securities class actions as we know them? Is it instead a minor change? Or will it even result in securities litigation on steroids?

Panelists for this webinar included Walter Saurack, a partner at Duane Morris and a noted corporate defense counsel specializing in arbitrations. Jessica Erickson, the George E. Allen Chair in Law at the University of Richmond School of Law, and our own Head of Litigation Analysis, Don Grunewald.

The panelists discussed how this new policy may play out and the implications for the 3 I’s: investors, insurers, and issuers.
