Glancy Binkow & Goldberg LLP, Representing Investors Who Purchased CRM Holdings, Ltd., Announces Class Action Lawsuit And Seeks To Recover Losses
Notice is hereby given that Glancy Binkow & Goldberg LLP has filed a class action lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of a class consisting of all persons or entities who purchased the securities of CRM Holdings, Ltd. (“CRM Holdings” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ:CRMH) between December 21, 2005 and November 5, 2008, inclusive (the “Class Period”).
A copy of the Complaint is available from the court or from Glancy Binkow & Goldberg LLP. Please contact us by phone to discuss this action or to obtain a copy of the Complaint at (310) 201-9150 or Toll Free at (888) 773-9224, by email at shareholders@glancylaw.com, or visit our website at http://www.glancylaw.com. The Complaint charges CRM Holdings and certain of the Company’s executive officers and directors with violations of federal securities laws. CRM Holdings is a provider of workers' compensation insurance products. Its main business activities include underwriting primary workers compensation insurance policies, underwriting workers’ compensation reinsurance and excess insurance policies, and providing fee-based management and other services to self-insured entities. The Complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period defendants knew or recklessly disregarded that their public statements concerning CRM Holdings’ financial performance and prospects were materially false and misleading. Specifically, defendants made false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose: (1) that Defendants and their affiliates engaged in a fraudulent scheme and course of business to grow membership in eight self-insured groups (the “Trusts”) previously administered by CRM, by charging premiums below commercial rates; (2) that the membership growth inflated gross trust revenues while reducing net paid premium income to the level that the assets of the Trusts would become insufficient to cover liabilities; (3) that, accordingly, the Trusts would fall below “fully funded” status; (4) that, as part of their fraudulent scheme and course of business to cover up the difference between assets and liabilities, Defendants and their affiliates disguised the true financial conditions of the Trusts by engaging in certain improprieties designed to result in minimal projected claims liability, including under-reserving individual claims and utilizing improper actuarial/accounting methods; (5) that Defendants and their affiliates provided the New York State Workers’ Compensation Board (WCB) with materially false and/or misleading financial and actuarial reports for the Trusts which reflected artificially reduced liabilities; (6) that, as a result of the above, the Company was exposed to hundreds of millions of dollars in liabilities relating to the under-funding of the Trusts; (7) that the Company lacked adequate internal and financial controls; and (8) that, as a result of the above, the Company's financial statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.TheStreet Premium Services
