The Securities Law Firm of KlaymanToskes, announced today that a class action lawsuit, Case No. 10-CV-07497, has been filed against Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS) on behalf of investors who purchased Hudson CDO Securities from Goldman Sachs, including Hudson Mezzanine Funding 2006-1, Ltd., Hudson Mezzanine Funding 2006-1, Corp., Hudson Mezzanine Funding 2006-2, Ltd., and Hudson Mezzanine Funding 2006-2, Corp. Goldman’s broker-dealer subsidiary, Goldman, Sachs & Co., underwrote, offered and sold the Hudson CDO Securities to investors. Potential class members who purchased Hudson CDO Securities from Goldman Sachs should consider whether they should participate in the class action or file an individual securities arbitration claim.
According to the suit, “in a classic case of ‘heads we win, tails you lose,’ the defendants failed to disclose to investors both that the CDOs were structured by defendants such that they were doomed to lose value, and that Goldman would profit enormously from proprietary short positions when the CDOs did lose value…By the fall of 2007, both [Hudson] CDOs had, in fact, declined in value significantly, saddling…investors with enormous losses.”
KlaymanToskes reminds investors of the benefits of filing an individual securities arbitration claim, as opposed to participating in a class action lawsuit. By participating in a class action lawsuit, an investor may only recover a nominal amount. However, if one has experienced significant losses in Hudson CDO Securities, it may be more beneficial for them to file an individual securities arbitration claim. In 2003, KlaymanToskes conducted a detailed study of securities arbitration versus class action. The study concluded that investors who file a securities arbitration claim traditionally obtain an overall higher rate of recovery as opposed to participating in a class action lawsuit.
