NEW YORK, Dec. 22, 2017 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Gainey McKenna & Egleston announces that a class action lawsuit has been filed against Credit Suisse Group AG (“Credit Suisse” or the “Company”) (NYSE:CS) in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of a class consisting of investors who purchased or otherwise acquired Credit Suisse securities on the open market from March 20, 2015 and February 3, 2016, inclusive (the “Class Period”), seeking to recover compensable damages caused by Defendants’ violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
