TVIX Lawsuit Details

Exchange traded notes (ETN) are SEC registered securities that are essentially debt instruments issued by financial institutions and allegedly allow investors exposure and hedging capability to market fluctuations. The TVIX ETN offered leveraged exposure to the VIX short-term futures index, an index comprised of front month futures with a 200% leverage on movements in the index. According to the complaint, shares of TVIX declined by over 29% as rumors about recommencing issuance of TVIX leaked into the market. Upon Credit Suisse announcing that it would reopen issuance of TVIX shares on a limited basis, shares of TVIX declined further by almost 30%. The complaint alleges that the risks leading to these large losses were materially understated or omitted in the TVIX Offering Documents.
