Abstract
T HIS study empirically examines the effects of increases in the level and enforcement of insider-trading regulations in the 1980s on corporate insiders.1 The main goal of the insider-trading regulations is to prevent insiders from trading on the basis of material, nonpublic corporate information. In addition, regulations require that insiders report their transactions to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and refrain from generating short-term profits by trading in their own firms' stocks. Regulations also prohibit insiders from short selling the securities of their firms.
