Two pairs of claimants will receive whistleblower awards totaling more than $98 million and $24 million, respectively, for information they provided to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) that led to an enforcement action.

The $98 million award was split between two claimants, with the first receiving $82 million and the second $16 million, the agency announced in a press release Friday. The $24 million award was also split between two claimants, with the first receiving $4 million and the second $20 million, the SEC announced in a separate press release Monday.
