BENSALEM, Pa.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Law Offices of Howard G. Smith announces an investigation on behalf of First Republic Bank (“First Republic” or the “Company”) (NYSE: FRC) investors concerning the Company’s possible violations of federal securities laws.
On March 13, 2023, First Republic led a decline in bank shares over concerns that it may not have sufficient liquidity, even after securing emergency funding from other institutions.
