AES Insider Trades History

Less than 1% of The AES are currently held by insiders. Unlike AES's institutional investors, corporate insiders most likely have a limit on the maximum percentage of share ownership. This is done to align insiders' influence against AES's private investors even though both sides will benefit from rising prices or experience loss when the share price declines. The good rule to have in mind is that the maximum share ownership percentage of the corporate insiders should not surpass 25%. View all of AES's insider trades

AES Insider Trading Activities

Some recent studies suggest that insider trading raises the cost of capital for securities issuers and decreases overall economic growth. Trading by specific AES insiders, such as employees or executives, is commonly permitted as long as it does not rely on AES's material information that is not in the public domain. Local jurisdictions usually require such trading to be reported in order to monitor insider transactions. In many U.S. states, trading conducted by corporate officers, key employees, directors, or significant shareholders must be reported to the regulator or publicly disclosed, usually within a few business days of the trade. In these cases AES insiders are required to file a Form 4 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) when buying or selling shares of their own companies.
