Write a 3-5 page essay about the ethical implications of insider trading. Financial statements and information are very important to investors. If some of this information is used or shared before it is released to the public, this could cause substantial movement in the price of a company's stock. Based on this fact and your own experience and knowledge, develop conclusions and explain the ethical implications of financial decisions within an organization. You may need to do additional research on the implications of using insider information (for example, the case of Martha Stewart) to help you with this assessment. Write an essay in which you respond to the following: Some individuals do not see anything unethical about insider trading. Yet, it is a criminal offense, one for which even well-known and respected individuals have served and are serving time in prison. Why is insider trading considered to be unethical? Even if it were ethical, would allowing insider trading hinder the operation of the stock market in raising capital for new and existing companies? Explain. You must use two or more sources in your essay to support your responses. Evaluates how insider trading may affect general business management planning and decision making. Evaluates the ethical implications related to financial decisions concerning inside information. Communicates in a manner that is professional, scholarly, and consistent with expectations for members of the business professions. Adheres to APA guidelines and produces work that is appropriate for publication.
