U.K. Investigates Leaks in Insider Trading Probe – WSJ

By Securities Docket on December 31, 2018, 10:37 am

The U.K.’s top law-enforcement body is examining allegations that an employee leaked information to a suspect in exchange for money, undermining a probe into a suspected network of European insider traders, according to people familiar with the matter.

The internal corruption unit of the National Crime Agency, the U.K.’s equivalent of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, is assessing whether a government translator who had access to wiretap recordings tipped off the target of an insider-trading investigation. This person may have worked with others in the agency to attempt to disrupt the probe, the people said.
