International Financial Litigation Network

A GLOBAL FINANCIAL SYSTEM REQUIRES A GLOBAL NETWORK OF SOPHISTICATED LITIGATION COUNSEL

The Creation of the International Financial Litigation Network

The international financial crisis and recent cases that have involved simultaneous proceedings in multiple court systems around the world have highlighted the need for coordination among courts and lawyers that deal with cross-border litigation to ensure the fair and efficient administration of justice.

Responding to this need, more than 40 law firms in 20 countries have formed The International Financial Litigation Network (the “Network”) to provide the experience, resources, communication and know-how to effectively apply and maximize the use of collaborative tools in complex cases.

SEPTEMBER 13TH TO 15TH - VIENNA - INTERNATIONAL FINANCIAL LITIGATION NETWORK´S GENERAL MEETING

On September 13th to 15th in Vienna took place the International Financial Litigation Network´s (IFLN) General Meeting. For one more year, this event brought together international lawyers and litigators from Europe and America to review and discuss about regulatory changes that may protect investors and will improve the performance of international financial markets. Diego Solana, partner of Cremades and Calvo-Sotelo, intervened in the meeting and exposed the current issues regarding Banco Popular case, and mentioned the legal actions and procedures that his law firm is working on behalf of thousand of shareholders and stakeholders, before the European and Spanish judicial authorities.
