  • Insider trading continues to be a high enforcement priority for both the SEC and DOJ. Both agencies have devoted unprecedented resources to investigating insider trading violations, continue to employ aggressive investigative techniques, and ventured into new substantive territories and prosecution theories. The result has been a continuing heavy docket of criminal and civil investigations and prosecutions and a continuing effort to chart new ground in insider trading prosecutions.

    At this program, a panel of experts will discuss the new frontiers being explored in recent cases. The course will cover the following topics, among others:

    • Expanding definitions of “insider” status and materiality
    • Issues and defenses arising in cases involving remote tippees;
    • Insider trading involving commodities, futures and derivatives, debt and credit instruments
    • Enforcement of the Stock Act
    • Prosecution and defense strategies
