Financial Services & Banking Practices

Analysis Group’s extensive work for banking clients includes analyses related to allegations of mismanagement, fraud and Ponzi schemes, anticompetitive activity, and breach of fiduciary duty against bank officers. We have assessed both liability and damages issues in lender-liability disputes and examined bank regulations in the context of litigation, as well as non-litigation internal investigations. We have also researched the causes and consequences of the failure of financial institutions and developed economic models related to bank failure prediction.
