ExpoForum Took Part in a Discussion About New Laws on Insider Information
Experts from ExpoForum company participated in a round table discussion on the new law, ``Combatting Illegal Use of Insider Information and Market Manipulation.''
The Kommersant Publishing House organized the round table in cooperation with the international law firm, Baker & McKenzie. Participants included top managers from major Russian and international companies: Bank St. Petersburg OJSC; Baltica Breweries OJSC; North-West Telecom OJSC; October Railways OJSC; Okhta Group Ltd.; representatives from the Federal Service for Financial Markets, the St. Petersburg Stock Exchange, and the Moscow Inter-bank Currency Exchange.
The head of ExpoForum's legal department, Iraida Borovitskaya, thinks that the law is too ``grey,'' and that it's not possible to predict how it will influence the market. It contains a large number of reference norms of laws to bye-laws that have not yet been prepared. However, the very fact that people realize the necessity to reform the laws pertaining to this sphere is seen as a positive step.
