Data Details


SEARCH MORE WIDELY 
With a database of over 14,000 nicknames, we capture name variations of your monitored employees and their family members to lessen the chance of risky activity going unnoticed. 

CAPTURE MORE BROADLY 
People can have more than one address. We capture them all, so you can be sure contributions aren’t going unmonitored just because the same person contributed in different states. 

FRESH DATA DAILY
Data is collected daily but how often it’s refreshed by the federal government, states, or municipalities can vary. Typically, the more populous the state the more frequently the data is published publicly. 

EXPORT WITH EASE
Data can be exported in an editable Excel/CSV format by employee groups or at the individual level so you can sort, manipulate, and review it on your own terms. 

DATA PRIVACY
Due to state privacy laws, users only have access to the contributions made by firm employees and their family members, not to the entire contribution database.

If firms fail to stay ahead, not only is it costly for them to pay for the reopening of exam windows or late filings, but also the loss of time from being unable to capitalize on the activities of their registered representatives.

Casting Further Light on Shadow Trading

15 Mar, 2023

When a biopharmaceutical industry executive reportedly learned in 2016 that a rival planned to buy the company he worked for, he is alleged to have bought options in another competitor’s stock prior to the news of the acquisition going public. This led to him being accused by the SEC in 2021 of insider trading. But while the SEC prosecutes approximately 50 insider trading cases a year, this was not the typical misappropriation of information or tipper/tippee liability but an instance of what has since been dubbed ‘shadow trading’.
