Several investors in the Thema International Fund, Herald USA and Herald Luxemburg Fund, and Primeo Select and Executive Fund have filed proposed class action lawsuits against Medici Bank, Sonja Kohn, Peter Scheithauer, Bank Austria Creditanstalt, Unicredit S.A., Pioneer Alternative Investments, Ernst & Young LLP, and HSBC Holdings plc. over their losses in connection with the Bernard Madoff $50billion Ponzi scheme. The Complaint alleges that the defendants violated the U.S. federal securities laws (10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934) and also asserts claims under state law (negligent misrepresentation, breach of fiduciary duty, gross negligence, unjust enrichment, and aiding and abetting breach of fiduciary duty). The plaintiffs allege all that the defendants caused harm to the investors in the stated funds by improperly funneling money to Bernard L. Madoff instead of properly investing money in the securities market -- as the Funds' prospectuses stated that defendants would do. Investors were never told their money was being invested with Madoff. After Bernard Madoff was arrested, numerous investment funds disclosed that they were little more than 'feeder funds' for Madoff and Bernard L. Madoff Investment Securities. Such funds included the Herald, Primeo, and Thema Funds. They each sought funds directly from investors, and delivered, or fed the investments they received to Madoff. Medici Bank controlled the Herald, Primeo, and Thema Funds, and caused these funds to be fed to Madoff, so the lawsuit.
