Intense market volatility throughout the COVID-19 crisis has led to new risks in shareholder litigation, which are likely to intensify throughout 2021 as emerging trends play out. During this webinar, we will highlight steps you can take now to help mitigate the risk of securities and shareholder lawsuits which can pose substantial financial and reputational threats. In addition to discussing pre-litigation protection, we'll cover building a strong defense in the event of litigation.
