Impact of the Recent Supreme Court Decision on the Law of Insider Trading
January 26, 2017
The Dec 6, 2016 court ruling in
US v Salman clarifies the “personal benefit” requirement and eases the
government’s burden of proving insider trading cases. But how does
this impact other decisions such as
US v Newman and the prosecution of future insider trading cases? While the government
need not show that the tipper has received something of tangible value,
it raises the question of when the relationship between tipper and tippee
reaches the level which would satisfy this lesser “personal benefit”
requirement. Head of Tannenbaum Helpern’s Governmental and Regulatory
Investigations Practice and securities litigator
Ralph Siciliano held a lively, in-depth discussion addressing these and other critical
questions in light of the
Salman decision.
