INSIDER TRADING
• One is that of some one within the firm using information for
his or her private gain, at the expense of the firm.
This is called conflict of interest
• The other is the use of insider information by someone within
a firm advantage over those not in the firm
INSIDER TRADING
Those who attempt to justify insider trading in terms of market
efficiency are mistaken. They believe in the market as an
impersonal mechanism which does not care who gains or loses
in its transaction. Winner and losers are beside the point,
because the market is simply an efficient means of matching
buyers and sellers.
• No insider shall
– deal in securities of a company listed on any stock
exchange
– Communicate, counsel or procure directly or indirectly any
unpublished price sensitive information
Unless required in the ordinary course of business
