Webinar Highlights

Insider trading is the trading of a company's stocks or other securities by “Insiders” - individuals with access to confidential or non-public information about the company. Is insider trading always illegal? If you are like most people, you will likely say yes.

However - webcast spoiler alert - insider trading is not always illegal.

This webinar will review the origin of United States insider trading laws and compare and contrast illegal and legal insider trading. We will review actual cases to illustrate the various ways individuals can be implicated in insider trading, and the reporting requirements corporate insiders need to follow for their trading to be considered legal.
