Structured Finance
Overview
Kirby McInerney is at the cutting edge of structured finance litigation, with over a decade of experience defending the interests of institutional and retail investors in cases involving the fraudulent structuring, marketing, and sale of asset-backed securities (“ABS”), including residential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”), collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”), and other structured investment vehicles (“SIVs”). Indeed, in the wake of the financial crisis, KM attorneys were some of the first to recoup fraud-related CDO and SIV losses for investors from major Wall Street banks. These efforts often led, rather than followed, efforts by regulators and the U.S. government.
Although the financial crisis has ended, the practice of fraudulently misrepresenting and/or concealing the true nature and quality of structured finance products has not. To the contrary, fraud continues to permeate the industry, often involving the misrepresentation and omission of material information within the sole possession of the products’ structurers, not discoverable by even the most sophisticated of investors. KM provides the experience, knowledge, and dedication that our clients need to actively protect their financial risks.
