Gerova Financial Group Ltd, which traded on NYSE Amex under the ticker CIO, was a specialty finance and asset management company formed through a SPAC business combination that closed in 2010, with its predecessor blank-check vehicle having gone public in the late 2000s. Focused on the financial services sector, the company pursued a strategy centered on acquiring and managing alternative financial assets following its merger. On May 9, 2011, Gerova filed a Form 25 — a formal notification of removal from listing under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act — confirming its delisting from NYSE Amex amid significant regulatory scrutiny of its operations.
