SEC Issues Whistleblower Award to Federal Agency Employee for First Time | National Law Journal

By Securities Docket on July 26, 2017, 10:10 am

The Securities and Exchange Commission on Tuesday awarded nearly $2.5 million to a government worker who helped regulators launch an investigation and eventually crack down on a company’s misconduct, the first such whistleblower bounty issued to an employee of a government agency.

As is typical in these cases, the SEC offered no identifying details about the employee, the government agency, or the company the individual blew the whistle on.
