Yesterday, ISS' Securities Class Action Services released a new report listing the Top 100 securities class action settlements of all-time.  The report, which will be updated quarterly, provides key information about each settlement including year, amount, court, lead counsel, claims administrator and other information. 

Some quick observations:

• The "low end" for inclusion in the Top 100 now stands at $40 million.
• A $100 million settlement will put you at # 38 on the list.
• 12 of the top 15 settlements have come since the year 2000.
