The Securities Law Firm of Tramont, Guerra & Nunez, P.A. (TGN) announces that major Wall Street firms were named in the American International Group Junior Subordinated Debentures Series A5 class action lawsuit (Case No. 08 CV 8659) filed October 9, 2008. American International Group (NYSE: AIG) issued through a public offering ("Offering") on December 11, 2007, a 7.70% Junior Subordinated Debentures through a syndication of underwriters which included: Citigroup Global Markets (NYSE: C), Merrill Lynch (NYSE: MER), Morgan Stanley (NYSE: MS), UBS Securities, (NYSE: UBS), Wachovia Capital Markets (NYSE: WB), Banc of America Securities (NYSE: BAC), RBC Capital Markets (NYSE: RBC), Wells Fargo Securities (NYSE: WFC) and Bear Stearns (not trading). The class action filed on behalf of investors alleges that American International Group, certain officers and directors, and the Wall Street underwriters of the Offering made representations in the Offering Prospectus that were "materially false and misleading," which class members relied upon to their detriment.

The Wall Street firms which were involved with the underwriting of the public offerings are obligated to conduct due diligence of facts concerning the risks associated with the investment. Furthermore, investors are entitled to rely upon brokerage firms for competent, suitable investment advice in accordance with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) Rules and Regulations. The recommendation of unsuitable investments and concentration in a particular security or sector are both sales practice violations which qualify for damages from a security arbitration claim filed with the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). In some cases, shareholders must "opt-out" as a class member in order to pursue a securities arbitration claim, otherwise this legal option is not available.
