On October 12, 2016, the SEC announced yet another insider trading settlement, charging Deutsche Bank with failing to maintain proper safeguards over material nonpublic information generated by the bank’s research analysts from 2012 through 2014; improperly publishing a research report that inaccurately reflected its legal analyst’s views; and failing to maintain appropriate electronic records to deliver to regulators during their investigation. This article outlines Deutsche Bank’s alleged misconduct, the SEC’s charges and the terms of the SEC settlement order, as well as insight into the broader circumstances surrounding this settlement.
