Back To SECURITIES FRAUDS
Insider trading gives fraudsters an unfair advantage over the rest of the investing public. Like other forms of market manipulation, it undermines the fair functioning of the securities market. Investors without inside information need to be able to trust that they can safely invest in the market and not lose out to insiders who will always be one step ahead. Illegal insider trading is a perennial enforcement priority for the SEC.
Everyday investors are harmed by insider trading, since they can’t compete with insiders. Insider trading hurts public confidence in the securities market.
