What's Happening?
Faruqi & Faruqi LLP, a national securities law firm, is investigating Marex Group plc for potential securities violations. The firm alleges that Marex and its executives made false or misleading statements and failed to disclose critical financial inconsistencies. These include selling over-the-counter financial instruments to itself and discrepancies in financial statements between subsidiaries and related parties. A report by NINGI Research accused Marex of a multi-year accounting scheme involving off-balance-sheet entities and fictitious transactions to hide losses and inflate profits. Following the report, Marex's stock fell by 6.2%. Investors who suffered losses between May 16, 2024, and August 5, 2025, are encouraged to contact Faruqi & Faruqi to discuss their legal options.
