A Boston-area man has agreed to pay more than $590,000 to settle U.S. insider trading charges over a deal he learned about from his former romantic partner, a Wells Fargo & Co analyst he met while salsa dancing.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission announced the settlement on Monday with Vlad Spivak, a resident of Medford, Massachusetts, whom the agency had accused of making more than $220,000 illegally through insider trading.
