In this ever shrinking world, international institutional investors invest heavily in the capital market of the United States. These markets not only provide access to the world's most dynamic investments, they are protected by the most robust anti-fraud laws in the world - the United States Federal Securities laws. International investors have the same rights as domestic investors to avail themselves of these laws, including the right to be appointed lead plaintiff in federal securities litigation.

In light of these facts, international investors require sophisticated and seasoned U.S. based counsel. The Pomerantz Firm, along with an extensive network of prominent law firms in England, France, Switzerland and the Middle East, stands ready to assist such clients in recovering monies lost due to securities fraud. Indeed, European and Israeli pension funds, banks, unions, and investment managers regularly consult with Pomerantz regarding their rights and options under the U.S. law. Currently, Pomerantz represents international funds in several class actions, including In re Comverse Technology Inc. Sec. Litig., In re Perrigo Co. Sec. Litig., and In re ProShares ETF Sec. Litig.

Moreover, Pomerantz's international clients benefit from the Firm's proprietary portfolio monitoring service, PomTrack©. This system enables us to quickly identify fund losses that may have been caused by fraudulent or otherwise improper activity, and is the first step in our in-depth case evaluation process. PomTrack© also enables us to track and evaluate securities class action settlements in which our clients may have claims. Pomerantz works with its network of international law firms to insure that its PomTrack© reports are understandable and readily accessible, thereby insuring that they are well informed of their abilities to recover monies due to them from U.S. class action settlements.
