Since the SEC adopted a new program in 2011, whistleblowers have been more incentivized than ever to come forward. The record for a payment to a singular whistleblower is an astronomical $279 million, and the Commission has awarded over $2 billion in total to various whistleblowers with information about securities violations.

Changes to the program in FY 2022 resulted in the SEC increasing potential awards. Whistleblowers will now be awarded even for non-SEC actions, and the Commission can only consider the dollar amount of potential awards to increase awards to whistleblowers, but not to lower them.

Awarding Connecticut Whistleblowers

Successful SEC enforcement action can award whistleblowers between 10 and 30 percent of actions exceeding $1 million. Despite this considerable incentive, there are still narrow rules of eligibility that whistleblowers must meet when submitting information, including:

Timely information: Whistleblowers must submit information to the SEC before they begin enforcement actions or investigations. All information given to the Commission must also be voluntary, not influenced by court orders.
Original information: Whistleblowers must provide first-hand information that results in enforcement actions, but they do not need to have exhausted internal reporting channels. Internal reports may increase the award percentage, however.
Significant information: Award percentage is tied to the knowledge of securities violations and how this information affects the enforcement action. Information that is in-depth and descriptive will result in a larger reward.

You can become a Connecticut SEC whistleblower with the help of our experienced SEC whistleblower attorneys. Our team can help provide your valuable information to the Commission in a way that meets their requirements and results in the greatest chance for financial compensation.
