Read previewThe embattled insurer Globe Life and its subsidiary American Income Life face new allegations of fraud, kickbacks, and misclassifying its army of sales agents.
Neither Globe, AIL, or any affiliated agencies have requested a correction on BI's series, which has been cited in all three short-seller reports.
Spokespeople for Globe, AIL, and Arias did not respond to inquiries about the Viceroy report.
Viceroy today published excerpts from a civil complaint alleging that Globe Life required recruits to purchase the course from Xcel for $149, $119 of which was kicked back to Globe Life, AIL, and agency executives, an allegation Globe has denied.
"As you might expect, these sales tactics do not engender long-term retention of policies," the Viceroy report states.
