Sedgwick acquires TPA York Risk Services

Sedgwick acquires TPA York Risk Services

  REPRINTS
TPA
Sedgwick Claims Management Services Inc. has agreed to acquire fellow top 10 third-party administrator York Risk Services Group Inc. in a transaction expected to close later this year.
Sedgwick will comprise nearly 27,000 staff following the close of the transaction – the terms of which were not disclosed, according to a statement on Monday. York has nearly 5,000 employees in more than 60 offices in the United States and an international presence as well.
“York offers customized claims solutions and has specialized experience to handle even the most complex claims across all liability lines,” Dave North, Sedgwick president and CEO, said in a client bulletin on Monday. “Their offerings notably complement Sedgwick’s existing market capabilities.”’
BofA Merrill Lynch and Morgan Stanley Senior Funding Inc. have provided committed debt financing for the transaction, which is subject to customary conditions and regulatory approvals.
Toronto-based private equity firm Onex Corp. acquired York in 2014 for $1.325 billion.
Sedgwick is the largest TPA with $2.7 billion in gross revenues in 2018 while York is the fifth largest with $800 million in revenues last year, according to the latest Business Insurance rankings.
About 52% of claims handled by York are workers compensation claims, 27% are auto and 10% general liability, according to Business Insurance's 2019 Third-Party Administrators Rankings and Directory.
“Our top priority will always be ensuring that clients’ programs continue to produce outstanding results,” Mr. North said. “Our dedicated colleague teams and trusted technology remain in place to provide those we serve with the exceptional support they expect from Sedgwick. Until the close of the transaction, York will continue conducting business as usual too.”
Sedgwick has made numerous acquisitions over its 50-year history, including Singapore-based loss adjuster Insight Adjusters and Surveyors Pte Ltd. to expand its operations in the region in March.

Canadian pension fund takes stake in Alliant who have ample amount of murdered witnesses to discuss

Connecting Canadian pension fund takes stake in Alliant to the murders of witnesses in the East Bay.  Filing claims is dangerous as when hiring prepaid legal when they screw up someone will burn down offices of counsel. 

 

Canadian pension fund takes stake in Alliant

Canada’s Public Sector Pension Investment Board is investing in Alliant Insurance Services Inc. and the U.S. brokerage’s majority shareholder Stone Point Capital LLC is upping its stake in the firm, Alliant announced Tuesday.
Following the transaction, Greenwich, Connecticut-based Stone Point will remain Alliant’s largest institutional shareholder while the company’s management and producers will continue to own “the majority of the firm,” Newport Beach, California-based Alliant said in a statement.
Stone Point became Alliant’s largest institutional shareholder in 2015. Alliant did not disclose more detail on the investments. An Alliant spokeswoman did not immediately return a call seeking comment.
“Alliant looks forward to partnering with PSP Investments as we enter this exciting new stage in our growth strategy,” said Tom Corbett, chairman and CEO of Alliant.
Alliant is the 10th largest broker of U.S. business with $1.1 billion in U.S. revenues, according to Business Insurance’s 2018 ranking.
Canadian pension funds are some of the largest global private equity investors. Montreal-based pension fund Caisse de dépôt et placement du Québec invested in Alliant rival USI Insurance Services LLC in 2017.

Whistleblower Protections


Protections Against Retaliation

The Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act expanded the protections for whistleblowers and broadened the prohibitions against retaliation.  Following the passage of Dodd-Frank, the SEC implemented rules that enabled the SEC to take legal action against employers who have retaliated against whistleblowers.  This generally means that employers may not discharge, demote, suspend, harass, or in any way discriminate against an employee in the terms and conditions of employment because the employee reported conduct that the employee reasonably believed violated the federal securities laws.
Dodd-Frank also created a private right of action that gives whistleblowers the right to file a retaliation complaint in federal court.  This means that if you are a whistleblower who has reported a possible securities law violation and believe you have been retaliated against because of your report, you may be able to sue your employer in federal court and seek double back pay (with interest), reinstatement, reasonable attorneys’ fees, and reimbursement for certain costs in connection with the litigation.
You can find more information about the Dodd-Frank whistleblower protections, including the time period by which a whistleblower must file a private action in federal court, in Section 922 of the Dodd-Frank Act.
If you believe you have been retaliated against by your employer for reporting a potential securities law violation and want to let us know, you may do so by submitting a tip either through our online portal or by mail or fax.

Protections Against Actions Taken to Impede Reporting

In addition to protecting whistleblowers who have reported possible securities law violations from retaliation, Commission Rule 21F-17(a) prohibits any person from taking any action to prevent you from contacting the SEC directly to report a possible securities law violation.  The Rule states “[n]o person may take action to impede an individual from communicating directly with the Commission staff about a possible securities law violation, including enforcing, or threatening to enforce, a confidentiality agreement…with respect to such communications.” 
Unlike the anti-retaliation protections, the protections against actions taken to impede reporting possible securities law violations are not limited to the employee-employer context.  Only the SEC, however, may file an enforcement action for a violation of Rule 21F-17(a).
Please let us know by submitting a tip if you believe that someone has taken any action to prevent you from communicating with the SEC concerning a possible securities law violation.

Frequently Asked Questions

The answers to these frequently asked questions represent the views of the staff of the Office of the Whistleblower. They are not rules, regulations or statements of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Further, the Commission has neither approved nor disapproved them. These FAQs provide short general summaries of certain key features of the SEC Whistleblower Program and do not purport to be a complete or comprehensive discussion of all of its provisions. For detailed information about the program, including eligibility requirements and certain limitations that apply, please see Section 922 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and the Final Rules implementing the program.
  1. What rights do I have if my employer fires me or retaliates against me for submitting information to the SEC?
You may bring an action in federal court within a certain time period if your employer violates the anti-retaliation provisions of Dodd-Frank.  If you are successful in court, you may be entitled to reinstatement, double back pay, litigation costs, expert witness fees, and attorneys’ fees.
The anti-retaliation protections generally apply to employees who report information regarding possible violations of the federal securities laws.  Among other things, these protections provide that an employer may not discharge, demote, suspend, threaten, harass, or in any way discriminate against a whistleblower in the terms or conditions of employment for:
  • Providing information to the SEC under the whistleblower program, or
  • Initiating, testifying in, or assisting the SEC in any investigation or proceeding
In addition, the SEC may also bring an enforcement action against a company that violates the anti-retaliation provisions of Dodd-Frank.
You may also be able to file a retaliation complaint in federal court under Section 806 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (“SOX”).  You can find information about your rights and protections under SOX on the Department of Labor’s whistleblower website
  1. I’m considering reporting internally to my company. Will I still be eligible for the anti-retaliation protections under Dodd-Frank?
With the passage of Dodd-Frank, Congress amended the Exchange Act to add Section 21F, which established a series of new incentives and protections for individuals to report possible violations of the federal securities laws, including enhanced employment retaliation protections.
On February 21, 2018, the United States Supreme Court issued an opinion in Digital Realty Trust, Inc. v. Somers stating that the Dodd-Frank anti-retaliation provisions only extend to those persons who provide information relating to a violation of the securities laws to the SEC.  To understand how this may affect you, we encourage you to consult with an attorney.
If you choose to report a possible securities law violation internally to your company, you also can report that information directly to the SEC either before or at the same time as reporting internally.  If you have already reported to the company, you can still report to the Commission now.
Regardless of whether the anti-retaliation protections extend to you, you may remain eligible for an award under our whistleblower award program. We encourage you to provide information about potential securities law violations to the SEC by submitting a tip. 
  1. What if I am asked to sign an agreement that prevents me from reporting my concerns directly to the SEC?
Such an agreement may violate the federal securities laws.  Rule 21F-17(a) provides that “[n]o person may take any action to impede an individual from communicating directly with the Commission staff about a possible securities law violation, including enforcing or threatening to enforce a confidentiality agreement…with respect to such communications.”
If you have been asked to sign such an agreement, or have already signed such an agreement, and want to understand how the rules may apply to you, we encourage you to consult with an attorney.  You may also send us a copy of your agreement, if you so choose, by submitting it as a tip either through our online portal or by mail or fax.
  1. Do the anti-retaliation protections apply overseas?
Dodd-Frank does not specifically state whether, or to what extent, the anti-retaliation protections apply to individuals or conduct outside of the United States.  To understand if the anti-retaliation protections may apply to you, we encourage you to consult with an attorney. We encourage you to submit a tip to the SEC if you believe you have been retaliated against for reporting potential securities law violations even if the retaliation occurred outside of the United States.
Regardless of whether the Dodd-Frank anti-retaliation protections extend to you, you may remain eligible for an award under our whistleblower award program.  You do not need to reside or work in the United States to be eligible for an award under our whistleblower award program.

Internal Reporting Amicus Briefs

The SEC has intervened in several private cases to argue that the anti-retaliation protections of Dodd-Frank should apply to individuals who internally report potential securities laws violations as well as to those who make disclosures directly to the SEC.  However, on February 21, 2018, the United States Supreme Court issued an opinion in Digital Realty Trust, Inc. v. Somers stating that the Dodd-Frank anti-retaliation provisions only extend to those persons who provide information relating to a violation of the securities laws to the SEC.
