NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Zamansky LLC announces that it is investigating Equifax Inc. (NYSE:EFX), for potential breaches of fiduciary duties to shareholders. In August 2017, Equifax discovered that it had been hacked and that sensitive personal information of nearly 146 million Americans had been exposed. This massive data breach was so shocking that the Senate Banking Committee convened a hearing at which Equifax’s CEO testified. Equifax has since offered credit protection and other services to try to protect and ameliorate any harm done to the victims.
On September 18, 2017, a securities class action was filed against Equifax for purchases of its stock. According to Jake Zamansky, investment fraud attorney, Equifax’s corporate officers and directors owe their shareholders fiduciary duties which include duties of loyalty. Separate from the securities case, we are examining whether Equifax’s recent data breaches may have violated fiduciary duties owed to its long-term shareholders, Zamansky says.
