Andrew M. Genser, a partner at Kirkland & Ellis, writes: The collapse of the $330 billion Auction Rate Securities (ARS) market in February 2008 has been eclipsed in the media by a string of other dramatic collapses (and near collapses) on Wall Street, from Freddie Mac to the Madoff scandal. However, despite the fact that ARS may have receded from the headlines, billions of dollars of illiquid ARS are still at stake. Indeed, although regulators have reached large settlements with the major ARS dealers, many investors are not covered and even investors who are covered are searching for ways to claim additional damages. At the same time, regulators continue to investigate the sales practices of secondary ARS dealers. This article surveys the ARS regulatory and private litigation landscape one year after the market collapse.
