Insider investment strategy

The insider investment strategy is an investment strategy that follows the buying and selling decisions of so-called "insiders" in a stock market. The primary insiders have an advantage because they have access to more information about issues that could affect the current and future value of stock, which is known as an "information advantage." However, in the world there are only a few investment funds that follow the insider trades, both of them were established in 2011. In the United States, Catalyst Capital Advisors LLC manages Catalyst Insider Buying Fund. This fund is a large-cap, long-only equity fund that only invests in companies where corporate insiders are buying their own company's stock on the open market. In Europe, Dovre Forvaltning UAB manages Dovre Inside Nordic fund. (Wikipedia).
