Fraud: can it ever really be settled?

REGISTRATION HAS NOW CLOSED FOR THIS EVENT. FOR ANY QUERIES PLEASE CONTACT alex.franklin@traverssmith.com

The principle that "fraud unravels all" sits uncomfortably with the strong public policy (and private interest) in the finality of settlement agreements.  In a series of cases, the English Court has grappled with these competing considerations with varying outcomes.  The panel will examine the balance struck in light of recent developments on this important issue for any party to proceedings involving allegations of fraud.
