Inside Information

Definition:

Each jurisdiction may have its own definition of what constitutes Inside Information. For example, in the United Kingdom, it is information of a precise nature that: (i) has not been made public; (ii) relates directly or indirectly to one or more issuers of qualifying investments or to the qualifying investments themselves; and (iii) would, if generally available, be likely to have a significant effect on the price of the qualifying investments or on the price of related investments.

There is no definition in the US securities laws of inside information.

Formerly known as “unpublished price-sensitive information.”
