A Reminder About Binance’s Insider Trading Policies
Nothing is more important to us than maintaining a safe and reliable exchange for our users. Everyone must have the comfort that no one is getting an unfair advantage when they trade on our platform. That’s why Binance has a strict policy banning insider trading.
Our Staff Dealing Policy, which was first introduced in 2018, is extensive. It includes a black-out period and strict restrictions on trading by both our employees and their relevant family members. And, we take great care to put safeguards around non-public information to prevent insider trading. Any member of the staff found to be involved in the misuse of non-public information or otherwise inappropriate behavior will be placed on a permanent blacklist. Not only will they lose their jobs at Binance but they’ll be pursued to the fullest extent of the law and their reputations will be tarnished. We will not hesitate to actively work with law enforcement on any potential criminal activity.
For our external listing partners and others as well, “non-disclosure” is one of our fundamental policies. If any project breaches this rule, Binance will immediately terminate the listing service or delist the project token. We ask that external listing partners take this warning very seriously.
We will make every effort to catch bad actors and protect the integrity of this industry. We have leading cybersecurity and digital investigations teams composed of many former law enforcement agents and security and intelligence experts who work tirelessly to investigate both external and internal wrongful behavior.
Our Internal Audit team also collaborates by closely monitoring and investigating abnormal trades and trading patterns. When anomalies are identified, there is a long-standing practice in place that Binance will investigate and hold those who have conducted misconduct accountable.
Our insider trading and listing policies also undergo regular reviews and updates to ensure that they meet the highest industry standard of regulatory compliance.
We encourage anyone with knowledge of unethical behavior to report it to us. Information that leads to a successful prosecution of an individual or company in respect of listing will bring a significant financial reward. The contact email for reporting unethical behavior is: audit@binance.com
