Lecture Introduction:
Since the 1960s, and when the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) began using Securities and Exchange Act of 1934 Rule 10b-5 to enforce against insider trading in the U.S. capital markets, the U.S. judiciary – led by the U.S. Supreme Court – has consistently sought to narrow civil and criminal enforcement against this particularly harmful type of market manipulation.In United States v. Newman (2014), the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit dealt a body blow to the insider trading prohibition as applied in so-called “tipper-tippee” trading under the architecture previously established in the 1983 U.S. Supreme Court case Dirks v. SEC.Even though a subsequent 2016 U.S. Supreme Court case (United States v. Salman) reversed the Newman ruling in some small part, the fact remains that enforcement of the insider trading prohibition under U.S. Bet365 sportsbook review pursuant to Rule 10b-5 remains highly constrained and bet365 best casino gamesidiosyncratic, especially compared to enforcement against insider trading in other well-established global capital markets in East Asia, the United Kingdom and Europe.This presentation will chart the negative trajectory for enforcement against insider trading in U.S. Bet365 sportsbook review, and demonstrate what lessons the failures evident in U.S. jurisprudence in this sphere have for China as it amends its own statutory insider trading prohibition in an amended 2006 PRC Securities Bet365 sportsbook review.
