Company secretary Cynthia Chen Si Ying allegedly dealt in the shares via her relatives before the takeover by Tian An China (0028). Also, a driver employed by Tian An parent Allied Group Ltd (0373) and his wife allegedly dealt. Interestingly, to discuss the takeover, Tian An Chairman Lee Seng Hui (referred to by the driver as the "eldest young master") took a trip to Beijing with middle-man Kin Chan of Argyle Street. Whom did they see there? Finally we note that the MMT notice was dated 29-Feb but it has taken 54 days for the SFC to announce this.

CFA allows SFC's appeal against MMT decision on insider dealing in Asia Telemedia Ltd
SFC, 12-Oct-2018
By a 4:1 majority, the Court of Final Appeal overturns the Court of Appeal's ruling which upheld the MMT decision. That's a victory for common sense - the defence that the insiders were selling to take advantage of a bubble holds no water when, if the company's financial difficulties had been known, its stock price would have been lower. By that test, they were "using" the Inside Information.

Cout of Appeal dismisses SFC's appeal against MMT decision
SFC, 28-Apr-2017
It's the SFC's 2nd loss in a month, following the CITIC case at the MMT. The MMT cases involved the same judge. The appeal centres on the meaning of "using" inside information, and whether withholding of the information was a "use" which had contributed to the artificially high price. In our view, that misses the point. It should have been enough to show, as the SFC did, that the respondents knew that the market price would likely be materially lower if the information in their possession had been disclosed. On a common sense analysis, that should constitute "using" the information when dealing. Let's hope the SFC takes this point of law to the CFA.

If you bought BOC (3988) on 31-Dec-2008 or 13-Jan-2009, or CCB (0939) on 6-Jan-2009, and if by chance your order was matched with a sale by Tiger Asia, then you are in line for a payout for their insider dealing. This folows the same system as the Du Jun case announced on 12-Dec-2013. As we said, it is a lottery allocation, because other investors who bought at that time will not get the payout. You have about a 1 in 5 chance of a payout in each stock.

SFC, 12-Dec-2013
This is the first restoration order for insider dealing. We question the fairness of the allocation though. 297 sellers whose orders just happened to be matched with his, during an 11-week period in which he bought 26.7m shares, will get about $0.90 per share - even though some of them may have been net buyers during the period. The whole market was unaware of the good news, and anyone who sold shares during that period, when volume was 1844m shares, but not to Mr Du, gets nothing. That turns the payout into a lottery with about a 1 in 69 chance of success.

The appeal is won, because each of the Harbour Ring and Vanda insider dealing tribunals partially admitted evidence from the other without a fair and full hearing of it. In a recursive manner, each was relying on the other to negate a coincidence and reach a finding of insider dealing. The lesson from this is that where two inquiries overlap, they should be heard as one. Final score: Chongs 2, Financial Secretary 0 (unless he appeals).
