HARTFORD, Conn. — The former chief financial officer at General Re Corp. was sentenced Thursday to 18 months in federal prison for her role in an accounting-fraud scandal that artificially propped up the stock price of insurer American International Group Inc.
Elizabeth Monrad, 52, of New Canaan was also fined $250,000 for her role in the case, which authorities say cost AIG shareholders more than $500 million.
