According to the Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market. Sterling repeatedly touted its strict underwriting, quality of its assets, and its Advantage Loan Program. The Company admitted on December 9, 2019, that it "voluntarily and temporarily suspended its Advantage Loan program in connection with an ongoing internal review of the program's documentation." Based on these facts, the Company’s public statements were false and materially misleading throughout the class period. When the market learned the truth about Sterling, investors suffered damages.
Join the case to recover your losses.
