Financial Recovery Technologies (FRT) today announced the acquisition of Investor Responsibility Support Services (IRSS), a leading competitor in the claims monitoring industry. Upon closing, all of IRSS’ clients and partners will have immediate access to FRT’s state of the art class action claims monitoring and filing platform, while FRT and its clients will benefit from IRSS’ technology and existing product offering.

“FRT is excited about the acquisition of IRSS,” said Rob Adler, president of FRT. “We believe that this deal will strengthen FRT, allowing us to continue to drive our own success and expand our service offering to new markets.  Kim Johnson helped pioneer the era of public pensions and their role in securities litigation in the wake of the PLSRA. We are thrilled to partner with Kim and his team to further their mission of supporting public pensions to execute their fiduciary duty.”

“I am extremely proud of what IRSS has accomplished over the last decade,” said Kim Johnson, founder of IRSS. “As a former General Counsel at several state employee pension funds, I’ve always put the client’s best interests first, and I believe partnering with FRT provides our clients with the technology and dedicated leadership that will serve them best into the future.”

Terms of the deal are not being announced.
