Description

This second edition of "Insider Trading" tells what activities insiders can and cannot engage in. It has been fully revised to take account of the reforms introduced by the Criminal Justice Act 1993 - the act which greatly broadened insider liability and repealed the Company Securities (Insider Dealing) Act 1985. This new edition has also been updated to include the changes introduced by the Disclosures of Interest in Shares (Amendment) Regulations 1993; the new edition of the Stock Exchange "Yellow Book"; the Insider Dealing (Regulated Markets and Securities) Order 1993; the Traded Securities (Disclosure) Regulations 1993; and the recent developments in case law. A new chapter on Chinese Walls, which examines the arrangements within a business which attempt to segregate functions in order to revent free flow of confidential information, has also been added. This book should be of interest to insiders, compliance officers, accountants, liquidators, advisers, commercial lawyers and employees of multi-function security houses, merchant banks, regulatory bodies, investment exchanges and clearing houses.
