Insider trading has long been considered an endemic feature of the world’s financial markets. It is unsurprising that the recent growth in mergers and acquisitions worldwide has been accompanied by a growth in insider trading on a scale not witnessed since the 1980s takeovers boom. Insider Trading: Global Developments and Analysis brings together the latest law and finance research on insider trading. It provides expert coverage on the established U.S., European, and Asia-Pacific securities markets, as well as the key emerging markets of Brazil and the greater China region. Providing high interest and up-to-date content, the book features several recent cases, including that of Martha Stewart.
