Criminal Investigations For White Collar Crimes Like Insider Trading
If you are the subject of an investigation, you are likely going up against federal agencies like the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). This regulatory agency is responsible for the investigation and enforcement of federal securities laws. They also rely on data from other groups such as the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA). These organizations monitor data related to price movements and stock exchange volume.
​
If a suspicious and dramatic change in price or exchange volume takes place, and it can be correlated with activity that improves the financial position of an executive or top-level manager, SEC or FINRA investigations typically ensue.
