Suspected insider trading at Olivetti
Legal investigation
Posted in On-Prem, 31st October 2000 12:45 GMT
Consob, the Italian stock market regulator, has referred a possible case of insider trading at Olivetti to the legal authorities.
This follows its own investigation, prompted by anomalous movements in the share price earlier in the days leading up to February 24 this year, when the company announced plans to convert the stock into ordinary voting shares. ®
