Welcome as this is, I think the US is way ahead of most countries because it guarantees whistleblowers a share of the resulting fines etc.
This is news to me, are there famous examples? Otherwise I am not sure, if money is the solution to everything, as it could create incentive to create problems or make them worse, only to eventually receive a bigger part of the fines.

Whether the denials were justified or not -- can't say.

> create problems or make them worse
Personally, I'd hope that the sophistication of the regulators involved, and the liable parties' lawyers---if you're doing something bad enough to be liable for billions of dollars in fines, you can afford good lawyers---would be a good guard against whistleblowers' trying to game the system.

I only know of this in securities violations and maybe one aspect of the medical field? Can you elaborate most? Most employees and stakeholders are just lucky if they aren't ostracized from their field forever.
