Comerica Incorporated (CMA) Regulation Violation Case
C.D. California
Court2:23-cv-06843
Case number02/09/2021
Class period Start05/29/2023
Class period End10/20/2023
Lead Plaintiff motion deadline- In May 2023, American Banker released an article discussing serious Comerica violations of Treasury’s Direct Express program.
- $CMA fell 7%, damaging shareholders.
- Investors suspect Comerica of violations that led to financial losses.
On May 29, 2023, American Banker released an article titled “Comerica in ‘serious violation’ of Treasury’s Direct Express program.”
- The article discussed significant issues with i2c Inc. and Conduent Inc., two vendors to whom Comerica contracts out the day-to-day operations of Direct Express, including handling cardholder information through an office in Lahore, Pakistan, lack of oversight, and failures to communicate with beneficiaries.
- The article detailed Comerica’s alleged violations of Regulation E.
On this news, $CMA fell 7% over two trading sessions, damaging investors.
Investors have reasons to suspect Comerica and accountable executives of failing to provide meaningful oversight over the vendors to whom it contracted out day-to-day operations of the Direct Express program, a system through which it is contracted to provide federal benefits to millions of Americans without bank accounts.
- As a result of violations in the day-to-day operations of Direct Express, including handling fraud disputes and allowing sensitive data to be handled out of a vendor’s office in Pakistan, Comerica was not in compliance with the Federal contract, and knew it was not in compliance;
- Comerica knew and failed to disclose that it was in potential violation of Regulation E due to inadequate fraud prevention in the Direct Express program and responses to instances of fraud;
As a result, the statements about its business, operations, and prospects, were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times.
When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.
