November 12, 2024 – The U.S. Justice Department announced today that insurance magnate Greg Lindberg has pleaded guilty to orchestrating a massive $2 billion fraud and money laundering operation spanning multiple countries, including the U.S., Bermuda, Malta, and North Carolina.
Lindberg, 54, pleaded guilty to charges of conspiracy to commit offenses against the U.S. and money laundering, admitting to a complex scheme that defrauded insurance regulators and policyholders over a period of several years. The fraudulent activities, which took place between 2016 and 2019, involved a network of companies under Lindberg’s control.
The Justice Department’s statement outlined how Lindberg’s actions resulted in significant financial losses and undermined the integrity of the insurance industry. The case highlights a broader crackdown on financial misconduct and serves as a stark reminder of the risks posed by corporate malfeasance on both sides of the Atlantic.
Lindberg’s guilty plea marks a significant development in the ongoing investigation, with sentencing expected at a later date.
