Apollo Investors Notified of Securities Class Action Over Alleged Epstein Ties

A May 1 court deadline is driving a push by shareholder firms to recruit a lead plaintiff.

Overview

  • A new investor notice from Hagens Berman says a securities class action against Apollo Global Management has been filed in federal court in New York under Feldman v. Apollo Global Management, Inc., No. 1:26-cv-01692.
  • The case seeks to represent buyers of Apollo shares from May 10, 2021 to February 21, 2026, alleging the company misled investors about its relationship with Jeffrey Epstein.
  • The suit cites press reports that described talks in the 2010s between Apollo leaders and Epstein about tax matters and meetings with banks, which it says undercut Apollo’s public denials.
  • According to the Hagens Berman notice, Apollo’s stock fell more than 15% over three weeks after those reports, erasing about $12 billion in market value.
  • Hagens Berman and The Gross Law Firm are urging Apollo shareholders to contact them before May 1 to seek lead-plaintiff status, and the firms note the claims are allegations that a court has not certified or proven.
