BNA (Arlington, VA) has released a new edition of its portfolio "Inside Information: Prevention of Abuse." The title covers the obligation of a U.S. public company and its insiders arising from the possession of material non-public information concerning company or its securities. It includes a discussion of what information may be deemed to be material and non-public, analysis of the prohibitions against insider trading, the scope of the company's obligation to disclose material information, and the formulation of corporate procedures that promote compliance with insider trading and disclosure requirements. It also discusses potential liabilities and statutory defenses for insider trading, as well as liability for short-swing profits under Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
