Federal authorities unsealed charges Wednesday against 30 individuals in what they call a massive, decade-long insider trading scheme that exploited confidential information from major U.S. law firms.
The indictments accuse corporate attorneys, financial professionals, and others of stealing material non-public information on nearly 30 mergers and acquisitions and trading on the details for illicit profits.
