NEW YORK (Reuters) – Discover Financial Services Inc (NYSE:DFS – News) and card networks Visa Inc (NYSE:V – News) and MasterCard Inc (NYSE:MA – News) have settled an antitrust lawsuit, sending shares of the fourth-biggest U.S. credit card company up over 14 percent.
In 2004, Discover had filed a lawsuit against MasterCard and Visa seeking roughly $6 billion in damages, as it contended the card networks had harmed its business by preventing their member banks from issuing credit cards for Discover’s network.
