ANZ breached its continous disclosure obligations when it did not disclose that underwriters had filled a $790 million shortfall, the Federal Court found.
ANZ breached its continuous disclosure obligations when it did not disclose that underwriters had filled a $790 million shortfall when raising $2.5 billion from institutional investors in 2015, a court has found.
Justice Moshinsky said ANZ’s arguments that the information was not material and was broadly known in the market, despite the bank not informing investors of the shortfall, were false.“The matters provided by ANZ do not fully or accurately reflect the facts and others do not reflect the meaning of material,” he said.
