Lucy Komisar is one of the top financial investigative reporters in the new media. Lucy is known for unraveling the most complex financial frauds—particularly those involving sophisticated cross-border transactions.

Lucy has recently published two articles as part of a blockbuster investigation into the U.S. insurance industry, digging into the finances of “Athene Life & Annuity Company, owned by Apollo Global Management Inc., one of the world’s largest asset management and private equity companies; Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (MetLife), the country’s largest life insurance concern; and Accordia, purchased last year by KKR & Co. Inc, also known as Kohlberg Kravis Roberts, the multi-billion-dollar investment and private equity firm. Together, these companies account for roughly one in six life insurance policies and annuities written in the United States.”
