Investment

Investment managers, broker-dealers, and financial institutions face litigation whenever clients, regulators, or business partners allege that an investment strategy, fee structure, or disclosure fell short of applicable fiduciary or suitability standards. These disputes commonly involve claims against investment managers over portfolio performance and fee practices, securities and investment-related damages claims following market losses, and disputes over the valuation of derivatives, structured products, or privately held investment positions. Because investment performance depends on market conditions as much as manager decision-making, the central issue in these cases is typically whether a manager’s conduct, rather than ordinary market risk, caused the loss at issue. Distinguishing between the two requires a rigorous, data-driven analysis of the investment decisions and the markets in which they were made.

An investment expert analyzes portfolio construction, trading activity, and market data to determine whether an investment strategy or specific transaction was consistent with the applicable fiduciary, suitability, or industry standard. That analysis often includes event studies and asset allocation review to isolate whether a loss resulted from manager decision-making, undisclosed risk, or broader market movement, which is central to establishing causation. In damages matters, the expert can value complex instruments such as derivatives, swaps, and privately held positions using accepted financial methodologies, providing a defensible basis for loss calculations. This quantitative foundation also strengthens litigation strategy by giving counsel a clear framework for challenging an opposing expert’s assumptions or methodology.

Because investment disputes often depend on rigorous quantitative analysis as much as subject-matter expertise, selecting an expert with direct experience managing or evaluating the type of investment at issue is essential. The experts we can provide include former portfolio managers, investment management executives, and financial academics with backgrounds spanning hedge funds, mutual funds, and wealth management, many of whom have testified on fee practices, suitability, and valuation of complex positions.
