Synchrony Financial (NYSE: SYF)
Class Period: October 21, 2016 - November 1, 2018
Lead Plaintiff Deadline: January 2, 2019
Join the action: https://www.zlk.com/pslra-1/synchrony-financial-loss-form?wire=3
The complaint alleges that during the Class Period, Synchrony falsely represented that its consistent and disciplined
underwriting practices had led to a higher quality loan portfolio than those of its competitors. In truth, Synchrony relaxed its
underwriting standards and increasingly offered private-label credit cards to riskier borrowers to sustain growth. The truth about
Synchrony's credit standards began to be revealed on April 28, 2017, when the Company announced disappointing first quarter 2017
earnings driven by poor loan performance. Following this disclosure, the Company represented that it had tightened credit
standards, but falsely characterized those underwriting changes as modest. In fact, the Company had made significant modifications
to its underwriting policies, but concealed that these modifications were damaging its relationships with its retail partners,
including Walmart.
