Compliance into the Weeds: Duty Owed vs. Material Nonpublic Information: Prediction Markets and Compliance

The award-winning Compliance into the Weeds is the only weekly podcast that takes a deep dive into a compliance-related topic, literally going into the weeds to explore it more fully. Looking for some hard-hitting insights on compliance? Look no further than Compliance into the Weeds! In this episode of Compliance into the Weeds, Tom Fox and Matt Kelly discuss prediction markets and their implications for compliance.

Tom and Matt focus on the phrase “violation of a duty owed” by employees and note that this standard appears significantly broader than traditional insider trading laws. They explain that insider trading law centers on the disclosure of material nonpublic information, whereas a “duty owed” framework emphasizes the underlying duty itself. Because “duty owed” could encompass obligations beyond material nonpublic information, the speaker highlights the potential compliance implications and expresses interest in exploring a related hypothetical scenario.
