About the Lawsuit
Fifth Third and certain of its executives are charged with failing to disclose material information during the Class Period, violating federal securities laws.
On March 2, 2020, the Company filed its 2019 10-K, also disclosing that the U.S. Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (“CFPB”) “notified Fifth Third that it intends to file an enforcement action in relation to alleged unauthorized account openings.” This admission and subsequent additional disclosures caused the Company’s stock price to fall, injuring shareholders.
The case is Lee Christakis, et al. v. Fifth Third Bancorp, et al, 20-cv-02176.
