The proposed settlements, disclosed in court papers filed late Wednesday in Manhattan federal court, call for plaintiffs to receive nearly $21.1 million in allowed claims against the broker-dealer in its liquidation proceeding.
They also call for plaintiffs to receive $5.25 million in cash from MF Global’s insurer, and another $1 million from MF Global itself in exchange for assigning their claims against a former trader to the company.
