Libya sovereign investment fund sues Goldman Sachs

Libyan Investment Authority alleges the US bank exerted 'undue influence' over fund managers

Libya's sovereign investment fund sued Goldman Sachs in London's High Court, alleging the bank exerted "undue influence" over the fund's managers to saddle the fund with losing trades.

The fund, the Libyan Investment Authority, says in the suit it estimates Goldman made $350 million in profits on $1 billion in trades.
