Securities Investigation – Cal Phoenix Re 2018-1

According to reports, PG&E Corporation, (the Pacific Gas and Electric Company) the nation’s biggest utility, filed for bankruptcy on January 29, to relieve itself of billions of dollars in liabilities due to the devastating wildfires in both 2017 and 2018.

Left with close to $30 billion of liabilities, the company has reportedly seen two-thirds of its stock market value wiped out. Bond prices have also reportedly taken a dive.

According to reports, in 2018, the company was seeking a $200 million or greater source of California wildfire insurance from the capital markets, helped by ceding reinsurance firm Tokio Millennium Re.

The Cal Phoenix Re 2018-1 catastrophe bond, sponsored by PG & E, was the first to cover pure wildfire risks which had seen PG&E threatened with liability cases, according to news reports.
