According to the Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market. Virtu maintained a generic username and password that allowed its employees including proprietary traders to access the confidential trading information of customers. In fact, the Company enabled its employees to inappropriately access this sensitive customer data by increasing the number of users who could access the database simultaneously. The Company failed to stop its customer's trading data from being abused. Based on these facts, the Company's public statements were false and materially misleading throughout the class period. When the market learned the truth about Virtu, investors suffered damages.
If you purchased or otherwise acquired Virtu shares and suffered a loss, are a long-term stockholder, have information, would like to learn more about these claims, or have any questions concerning this announcement or your rights or interests with respect to these matters, please contact Brandon Walker or Marion Passmore by email at investigations@bespc.com, telephone at (212) 355-4648, or by filling out this contact form.
