NEW YORK, Oct. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Kroll, the leading independent provider of global financial and risk advisory solutions, announced today that a multi-million dollar settlement between the liquidators of Emergent Fidelity Technologies, Ltd. and the FTX Estate has been approved by the US Bankruptcy Court in Delaware. This settlement involves the recovery of 56 million shares in Robinhood Markets, Inc., acquired by Emergent in May 2022.

Emergent is an Antiguan entity controlled by former FTX executives Sam Bankman-Fried and Zixiao “Gary” Wang. Kroll’s liquidators of Emergent, Angela Barkhouse and Toni Shukla were originally appointed as Receivers over Emergent on an emergency basis to prevent assets from being sold and made inaccessible to the victims of Bankman-Fried’s scheme. The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) took control of the assets. The liquidators from Kroll worked with the DOJ to facilitate the repurchase of shares by Robinhood, securing over $626 million for the victims of the FTX scheme.

This settlement is part of the ongoing efforts to recoup assets back for the victims of Bankman-Fried’s scheme.

Angela Barkhouse, Head of Offshore Restructuring at Kroll commented, “The settlement is a significant step in the liquidation of Emergent Fidelity Technologies, Ltd., providing a fair and efficient resolution for all parties. It underscores our commitment to maximizing value and aims to resolve outstanding claims and facilitate the equitable distribution of assets to creditors.”

H&M Foundation – Tackling urgent challenges with anticipatory funding

Published

h&m-foundation-–-tackling-urgent-challenges-with-anticipatory-funding

H&M Foundation has announced a significant commitment of SEK7,500,000 (€660,000) to support Start Network’s disaster risk financing programme, Start Ready. This three-year commitment aims to strengthen the capacity of eight countries to anticipate, respond to, and recover from crises.

STOCKHOLM , Oct. 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — With climate as a strategic focus, the H&M Foundation’s mission is to support the textile industry in halving its greenhouse gas emissions every decade reaching net-zero by 2050 in a just and fair transition. However, there are also urgent climate related challenges such as climate disasters, that require urgent action. Over the years, climate related disasters have increased. Evidence suggests that around 55% of humanitarian funding goes to climate related crises but only 1% of this funding is organised in advance – despite this being a much more effective way of tackling these crises.

 

 

Targeting anticipatory measures in climate driven disasters can prevent or ease emergency catastrophes. That is why H&M Foundation now partnered up with Start Network, a global network of more than 100 organisations working together to shift from reactive crisis response to proactive early action, to support their financing mechanism Start Ready. Through Start Ready, funds are prepositioned for crises that happen with regular and predictable patterns of recurrence, like floods, droughts, and heatwaves. Start Ready protects an average of 700,000 people across eight countries annually. This partnership will enhance the capacity and coverage of current hazard preparedness systems in these countries.

Anna Gedda, CEO of H&M Foundation, hopes that this partnership can inspire other funders to invest more in preventive work: “Proactive measures are essential to prepare for, respond to, and recover from catastrophic events. We believe preventive funding can make a significant difference and ensure a safer future for all. We are proud to support Start Network in their vital efforts to prevent and mitigate the negative effects of disasters.”

H&M Foundation is privately funded by the Stefan Persson family, founders and main owners of the H&M Group. We use philanthropic resources to find, fund and facilitate disruptive innovations, initiatives and research that enable a socially inclusive and planet positive textile industry. To accelerate the transformation, we take on a holistic and open approach – bringing diverse partners together to co-create, and to share learnings and solutions. The H&M Foundation can also provide emergency relief. For more information visit hmfoundation.com.
