Part II : Some further thoughts on insider dealing - the brighter side of insider dealing

Abstract

From the first part of this feature on insider dealing, one may have concluded that the subject is a technical one, rather obscure and perhaps boring. In this second part, I shall try to show that even in matters of insider dealing, a little effort and imagination will enable us to uncover a brighter and more exciting side, which is often overlooked. I shall do this by reference to literary works, mainly fiction, where insider dealing and similar activity have played an important role.
