Gold & Silver Price Manipulation Class Action Brought on Behalf of Canadian Investors Fri, 15 Apr, 2016 5:04 PM EDT
TORONTO, April 15, 2015 /CNW/ - A class action lawsuit seeking $1 billion in damages on behalf of Canadian investors was launched today in the Ontario Superior Court of Justice. The class action alleges that the defendants, including The Bank of Nova Scotia, conspired to manipulate prices in the silver market under the guise of the benchmark fixing process, known as the London Silver Fixing, for a fifteen-year period. It is further alleged that the defendants manipulated the bid-ask spreads of silver market instruments throughout the trading day in order to enhance their profits at the expense of the class. This alleged conduct affected not only those investors who bought and sold physical gold & silver, but those who bought and sold gold & silver-related financial instruments. Law enforcement and regulatory authorities in the United States, Switzerland, and the United Kingdom have active investigations into the defendants' conduct in the precious metals market. The case is on behalf of all persons in Canada who, between January 1, 1999 and August 14, 2014, transacted in a silver market instrument either directly or indirectly, including investors who participated in an investment or equity fund, mutual fund, hedge fund, pension fund or any other investment vehicle that transacted in a gold & silver market instrument.
