NEW YORK, Aug. 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Faruqi & Faruqi, LLP, a leading national securities law firm, is investigating potential securities fraud at Tower Group International, Inc. ("Tower" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: TWGP).

(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20120119/MM38856LOGO )

The investigation focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws with respect to its disclosures concerning business, operational, and compliance policies.  Specifically, the investigation focuses on whether: (i) Tower did not properly estimate its loss reserve provisions in regards to Generally Accepted Accounting Principles and (ii) the Company did not properly allocate goodwill and certain of its deferred tax assets.

On August 8, 2013, Tower announced it was postponing the release of its financial results for the second quarter of 2013 because the Company needed more time to review matters relating to the estimate of its loss reserves, its allocation of goodwill and certain tax accounts.  Following this news, the stock dropped $5.20 or 24%.
