Solicitors Journal recently spoke with Financial Markets and Funds Partner Neil Robson regarding the whistleblower reward scheme the UK Government is considering as part of a new Fraud Review. Neil states, “For a long time, in the USA, the rules have been such that whistleblowers have been financially incentivized to provide information on wrongdoing.” He sees the potential in such a program domestically, who previously only had US agencies providing rewards. “A whistleblower’s reward scheme that incentivizes people to act as ‘informants’ and provide useful information to allow UK enforcement agencies to prosecute wrongdoing has to be one area that is a win for society.”
