On May 21, 2024, Globe Life Inc. confirmed that it is under investigation by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in relation to short seller reports. The company has received a preliminary inquiry from the SEC. This follows a series of nine articles published by Business Insider since February 2023, which led to investigations by the Department of Justice, the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and the Pennsylvania Insurance Department.
