Miami Insider Trading Attorney
Miami-Dade Federal Defense Attorney
Insider trading is a crime wherein a person in a position of responsibility or trust or in breach of fiduciary duty, with non-public knowledge of a security, buys or sells that security. For example, Bob may be the accountant for Company 123. Because he is responsible for the company's books, Bob knows that the company is about to file for bankruptcy.
This information is not yet public knowledge. If Bob were to then use that information and sell all of his stock in Company 123 or perhaps invest in Company 456 (a prime competitor) this may constitute insider trading.
SEC Investigations for Insider Trading
The SEC (Securities and Exchange Commission), in coordination with state securities agencies, oversees and enforces securities laws throughout the U.S. The SEC will be aggressive in investigating alleged situations involving insider trading and may conduct a lengthy investigation in order to collect the evidence necessary to bring charges against the defendant in federal court.
To counteract aggressive investigation and prosecution attempts, you need an attorney at your side to assert your rights and defend you against a conviction.
