Abstract: It's well known that insider trading can result in financial market distortions and inefficiencies such as lack of investor confidence, reduced participation, and higher risk premiums demanded by those who continue to participate. These distortions and inefficiencies often appear intractable - especially so in New Zealand. But recent work by Aaron Gilbert, Alireza Tourani-Rad and Tomasz Piotr Wisniewski suggests that the Securities Market Amendment Act 2002 is beginning to make a difference. The authors report on their research.
