Prediction markets are creating new insider-trading risks that reach far beyond traditional finance roles. As regulatory scrutiny increases, employees with access to confidential business information may face exposure in ways many organizations have not yet anticipated.
In this CLE webinar, Elizabeth Davis and Barry O'Connell will examine how insider-trading risk now applies to any employee with access to sensitive information—not just finance professionals. They will address common misconceptions, review recent DOJ and CFTC civil and criminal enforcement actions involving prediction market platforms, and discuss the evolving regulatory landscape. Through practical hypotheticals, attendees will receive a handbook-update checklist for HR and Compliance and gain guidance on how their teams can support clients in navigating these issues.
Attorneys and business professionals across all disciplines are encouraged to attend.
