Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Essay from the year 2010 in the subject Law - Civil / Private, Trade, Anti Trust Law, Business Law, grade: 67, , course: Company Law, language: English, abstract: The following paper investigates the concepts of insider dealing. While the first part offers an overview of the relevant legislation, the second part aims to answer the question as to whether insider trading should be prohibited by legislation. Insider dealing refers to the use of non-public and price-sensitive information for the purpose of gaining an unfair advantage and involves trading with company shares or other securities in a public financial market. Such conduct is both a criminal offence and a regulatory infringement under the civil code. There are various theories dealing with insider trading that offers arguments for and against the prohibition of insider trading. The misappropriation theory, the unfairness approach and the idea that insider dealing will negatively affect market confidence are all considered to be distinct reasons for regulating insider dealing. On the other hand, opponents argue that legalization of insider dealing would lead to increased market efficiency, fairer share pricing and fraud prevention. Despite the high costs required for prevention of insider dealing and the fact that very few if any companies have ever sued its officers for inside trading, it is widely regarded by the governments as being immoral and damaging for the markets and is therefore prohibited. The offences can be dealt with either civil or criminal regime, with the latter being far more difficult to apply in practice and thus less effective.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A thorough analysis of insider trading requires the integration of law and finance, and this book presents a theoretical and empirical examination of insider trading by incorporating a synthesis of securities law with that of financial theory. The book begins with a conceptual framework that explores the theoretical roles of markets, firms and publicly held corporations, including a discussion of corporate governance to determine both who may have access to nonpublic information, and their legal rights and responsibilities. The book then examines different aspects of the securities laws, including the Securities Act of 1933, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, and a critique of the SEC disclosure rules and their ramifications for market efficiency. This is followed by a detailed chronology of insider trading regulations enacted in the U.S. since 1934 and an overview of the existing empirical literature on insider trading. Empirical evidence is presented on insider trading activities and the merit of anti-insider trading laws is evaluated on theoretical arguments and recent empirical developments. The authors conclude by arguing that insider trading laws and enforcement activities have failed and propose the decriminalization of insider trading.

Download or read book Inside Information and Securities Trading A Legal and Economic Analysis of the Foundations of Liability in the U S A and European Community written by Bernhard Bergmans and published by Springer. This book was released on 1991-10-29 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book thoroughly re-examines the foundations of liability in respect of insider dealing in the USA and EC in order to find clear guidelines for future judical, administrative and legal action, and develops a new approach to insider dealing regulation. Despite the considerable legislative, administrative and judical efforts in the USA to curtail insider trading it is not clear what the bases for such prohibition are, In law or policy. The dramatic increase in insider trading activity in recent years renders more intense the requirement for a rational and explicit basis for such liability to fulfil the needs of elementary justice. Through a different historical route efforts to tackle the same problem in Europe, particularly over the last ten years by the European Commission, have resulted in a similar legal dichotomy: a legal basis for liability is established but its foundation is insufficiently scrutinized, which will become apparent as the new European Insider Trading Directive is interpreted.

This book was released on 1992-02-10 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regulation of insider trading has changed dramatically in the past few years. In reaction to highly publicized insider trading scandals and the internationalization of securities markets, all European countries have recently either strengthened their existing rules (France and the United Kingdom) or implemented new rules (Denmark, Greece, The Netherlands, Belgium, Ireland, Spain, Portugal, Luxembourg, and Italy). The United States continues to refine its insider trading regulations, and Japan has recently enacted legislation in this field. As a result of the increasingly international nature of insider trading, supervisory authorities throughout the world now closely coordinate their efforts. Drawing from the experience of law professors, governmental officials and practising lawyers, this book explores the regulations of eighteen countries in Europe, the United States and Japan, as well as the EC Directive Coordinating Regulations on Insider Dealing, and the Council of Europe's Convention on Insider Trading. This book is an indispensable tool for practising lawyers, legislators, academics, and international business and finance professionals. Combining legal doctrine and practical information, it analyzes, for each legal system, how insider trading is defined and controlled. Further, it addresses other stock-related infractions and international law issues such as jurisdiction and international cooperation.
