Belden Nago is an associate based in our New York office.

Mr. Nago joined the firm in 2011 and focuses on securities litigation.
 
Some of Mr. Nago’s relevant experience includes:
 
  • Representation of municipal issuers, including governmental entities and hospital systems, in FINRA arbitrations alleging misrepresentations by underwriters in connection with Auction Rate Securities issuances.
  • Representation of the exchange-based class in In re LIBOR-Based Financial Instruments Antitrust Litigation, an antitrust case alleging that defendant banks colluded to misreport and manipulate LIBOR.  This litigation has already resulted in partial settlements totaling approximately $187 million, which collectively represent the largest historical class-wide recovery for a “futures only” settlement class.
  • Representation of a whistleblower in Anonymous, et ano. v. Moody's Corporation, et al., No. 103997/2012 (Sup. Ct. N.Y. Cty. and First Dept.), alleging millions of dollars of tax fraud using a sham captive insurance company for over a decade regarding domestic and international transactions.  The litigation was settled for $8.5 million.
  • Representation of the proposed class of investors in Shah v. Zimmer Biomet Holdings, a securities class action alleging that a medical device company did not disclose systemic quality issues at its manufacturing facility.
 
Prior to joining KM, Mr. Nago was an associate in the Structured Finance department at Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP.
