Abstract
Theoretically, financial markets are considered a place of transparency and fairness. They must be efficient, which implies that there is perfect information and known to all. However, it happens that some people are likely to harm them or to undermine equality among its investors. Especially when one of them in possession of inside information, decided to take advantage of the knowledge of others, who, unaware of this information. Investors who profited from the situation can then be prosecuted and / or administratively for «insider trading.» The study of this offense and failure to initiate the state of the current legislation is the subject of this work.Primary Language | French |
