Дано: двое сотрудников XXX обвиняются в [таинственном преступлении] "insider trading", а руководство XXX -- в создании атмосферы, где такое стало возможным.

Kotz, who told Congress last year he was examining whether frequent trades by the pair broke agency rules, referred the case to the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Washington after finding evidence the bets might amount to insider trading, he wrote in the March 3 report released by Senator Charles Grassley. Both [employees] still work for XXX and denied improper conduct.

The report faults XXX for inadequately monitoring trades by employees and relying on an “honor system.” The [XXX employees] frequently discussed stocks at work, traded in at least one company [involved with XXX business] and didn’t properly disclose some transactions, it says. One [XXX employee] made 247 trades in the two years ending January 2008, and the other made 14.

The XXX “has essentially no compliance system in place” to ensure employees don’t abuse the “tremendous amount of nonpublic information they have at their disposal,” Kotz wrote.

The XXX is already working on steps to guard against potential misconduct, and the report doesn’t conclude that insider trading occurred, XXX spokesman John Nester said.

Спрашивается: в какой индустрии работает XXX?
