Posts from December 2022.
On December 14, 2022, the Securities and Exchange Commission amended insider trading rules by adopting new trading restrictions and disclosures to address potential abuses by executives. According to SEC Chair Gary Gensler’s statements in the SEC’s press release these amendments are needed to fill “potential gaps” where insiders trade “opportunistically on the basis of material nonpublic information.” The new rules amend Rule 10b5-1’s affirmative defense provisions to insider trading liability, create new reporting requirements for issuers, and update beneficial ownership reporting requirements for insiders.
