Esportes · Lakers saleVenda dos Lakers por US$ 12.5B vem após reapresentação contábil de US$ 17B e investigação no setor de segurosEscrito 7 de setembro de 2026 às 21:22 UTCAssistirTranscrição0:00$17 billion in insure assets just0:03flipped from independent to affiliated.0:05Annuities and reserves backing thousands0:07of policy holders were reclassified in0:09one filing, and a record 122.5 billion0:12team sale followed days later. The0:14disclosure gap now touches insurer0:16solveny, credit ratings, and two sports0:19empires at once. Will regulators approve0:21a $6.5 billion asset swap to unwind the0:24exposure? and will prosecutors turn the0:26reclassification into charges before0:28that Lakers deal actually closes. At the0:30center are two [music] life insurers0:32controlled by businessman Mark Walter,0:34Delaware Life Insurance Company and0:36Clear Spring Life and [music] Annuity0:37Company, subsidiaries of Group 100010:40under TWWG Global. The question [music]0:42under review is whether business loans0:43and private credit investments made to0:45entities inside the same corporate0:47family were properly disclosed as0:48affiliated. The trail [music] start at0:50least 11 billion dollars was already0:52affiliated as of December 2024 under the0:54new categorization. The fix is filed but0:57not approved. [music] Delaware Life0:58would sell up to $6.5 billion in1:01affiliated assets to TWWG Global in1:03exchange for unaffiliated investments, a1:05swap that requires approval from the1:07Delaware Department of Insurance. Clear1:09spring separately cut $90 million.1:11Together, [music] they chip away at a1:13pool exceeding $20 billion in loans1:15previously conceited as having1:16undisclosed affiliated status. One loan1:18shows how granular the unwind goes. A1:21$4.1 million loan to Dodger Tickets LLC,1:24an entity affiliated with Walters1:26Baseball Holdings, was nearly paid off1:28in April 2026, [music]1:30showing a $1 balance in the June filing.1:32Against that clock came the sports1:34liquidity move. About a week before1:36August 20, around mid August, Walter1:38agreed to sell the Los Angeles Lakers1:40for a [music] record $12.5 billion about1:4314 months after purchase when the1:45franchise was valued at $10 billion.1:47>> [music]1:47>> That is $2.5 billion above the valuation1:50just over a year earlier, an unusually1:52[music] fast turnaround for a1:53controlling sports asset. Coverage of1:55the filings describes the sale as a1:57quick source of cash [music] as assets1:58need to be moved with proceeds available2:00to support the asset swap and broader2:02balance sheet repositioning if2:03regulators require it. No buyer terms,2:06definitive agreement details, purchase2:08price allocation, or league approval2:10timeline and closing schedule have been2:11published. One filing review described2:13it as an agreement in principle with2:16league regulatory and counterparty2:18approvals still ahead. The same pressure2:20extends to London. [music] Talks2:21reported August 18th described2:23negotiations for Walter's 12% stake in2:25Chelsea FC held alongside Todd Bowley2:28for a combined about 12.7% to be sold to2:30majority owner Clear Lake Capital. Clear2:33Lake holds about 61.5% through Blue2:36Co.22 [music] Holdings LP, the vehicle2:38that acquired the club from Roman2:39Abramovich in 2022 under [music] a joint2:41control arrangement. A sale of the2:43combined stake would lift Clear Lake2:45above 87% and end joint control. No2:48official statements from Walter, Bowy,2:50or Clear Lake have been issued. No2:51valuation or per share price disclosed,2:53[music] and no agreement is described as2:55imminent. Federal agents executed the2:57court authorized midway search in2:59September 2025 [music]3:01and seized a mobile phone with the FBI3:03Chicago field office declining further3:05comment. [music]3:06Group 101 and TWWG Global say they are3:08cooperating fully and that capital3:10position and liquidity remain strong3:12while the [music] Southern District of3:13New York, the SEC, and the Delaware3:15Department of Insurance have declined3:16comment beyond ongoing review. Ratings3:19reflect scrutiny without a downgrade3:20yet. [music]3:21S&P revised outlook from stable to3:23negative while affirming an a financial3:25strength rating. Fitch placed the3:27insurer on negative watch. [music] No3:28charges have been filed against Walter3:30or any executive. No enforcement action,3:33fine or standing determination has been3:35announced [music] and no leadership3:36changes have been reported. The NIC in3:392026 restructured private credit3:41oversight, creating an invested assets3:43task force and investment analysis3:45working group reviewing this case as a3:47test of affiliated investment disclosure3:49[music] with statutory accounting3:50changes adopted for year-end 20263:52filings.
