'False and misleading statements'

The lawsuit, which was filed by US investors, has claimed that the bank made "materially false and misleading statements" in its 2021 annual report.

It was filed by Rosen Law Firm in Camden, New Jersey, which specialises in representing individual shareholders in suits.

Wall Street giants move to rescue First Republic Bank

America's largest banks have moved to shore up First Republic, easing fears that the regional lender could be the next domino to fall after collapses including Silicon Valley Bank.

A consortium of 11 US private banks, including Bank of America, Citigroup and JPMorgan Chase, announced they would deposit $30bn into First Republic.

The move marks a dramatic initiative by the lenders to bolster the system following failures of three midsized lenders in the last week.

Kinda hoping the shares hover around as can re-invest the dividend on the cheap.
