Insider trading data from 30+ official regulatory sources

Every transaction on InsiderLens is sourced directly from mandatory regulatory filings. Never scraped, never estimated, never delayed.

How insider transactions are regulated worldwide

In the United States, Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires corporate insiders (officers, directors, and holders of more than 10% of a company's shares) to report transactions to the SEC via Form 3 (initial holdings), Form 4 (changes in ownership), and Form 5 (annual summary). Filings are publicly available within 2 business days on the EDGAR system. In the European Union, the Market Abuse Regulation (MAR, Regulation EU 596/2014) Article 19 requires Persons Discharging Managerial Responsibilities (PDMRs) and their closely associated persons to disclose transactions within 3 business days. Each EU member state's national competent authority (NCA) publishes these notifications.

Why insider transactions matter

Academic research consistently shows that insider transactions contain predictive information about future stock returns. Lakonishok & Lee (2001) found that insider purchases in US stocks outperform the market by approximately 7-10% annually. Jeng, Metrick & Zeckhauser (2003) confirmed that insider purchases earn abnormal returns of over 6% per year, while insider sales show no significant predictive power. More recently, Cziraki, De Goeij & Renneboog (2014) showed similar patterns in European markets, with insider purchases in EU-listed firms generating excess returns of 5-8% over 12 months. Cluster purchases, where multiple insiders buy shares within a 14-day window, have been shown by Alldredge & Cicero (2015) to produce even stronger signals, with abnormal returns exceeding 10% over the following quarter.

Data normalization methodology

InsiderLens normalizes insider transaction data from heterogeneous sources into a unified schema. The pipeline processes each filing through 6 stages:

1
Company resolution

matching filings to companies via ISIN, CIK, LEI, or ticker+exchange pairs

2
Insider matching

deduplication of insider identities across sources using name normalization (NFKD decomposition, accent stripping)

3
Role mapping

200+ multilingual role patterns mapped to 11 canonical roles (CEO, CFO, Board Member, etc.)

4
Transaction type classification

source-specific codes and keywords mapped to 14 canonical types (Buy, Sell, Grant, Exercise, etc.)

5
Currency conversion

all amounts converted to USD using ECB exchange rates with weekend/holiday lookback

6
Deduplication

SHA-256 hash per filing to prevent double-counting across overlapping sources

Frequently asked questions

What is insider trading data?+
Insider trading data refers to the legally disclosed transactions made by company insiders — executives (CEO, CFO), board members, and significant shareholders (>10% ownership). In the US, these are reported to the SEC via Form 4 filings. In the EU, they are disclosed under the Market Abuse Regulation (MAR) Article 19. These transactions are public information and provide signals about insider confidence.
Are insider transactions a reliable investment signal?+
Academic research suggests that insider purchases tend to outperform the market by 7-10% annually on average (Lakonishok & Lee, 2001; Jeng, Metrick & Zeckhauser, 2003). However, insider sales are less informative as they can be motivated by diversification, tax planning, or personal needs. InsiderLens provides the data — investment decisions should always involve professional financial advice.
How fresh is the data on InsiderLens?+
InsiderLens processes regulatory filings continuously. SEC EDGAR filings (US) are typically available within minutes of submission. European filings from AMF, BaFin, FCA, and other regulators are processed daily. The platform covers over 21,000 companies across 30+ regulatory jurisdictions.
What is a cluster buy?+
A cluster buy occurs when three or more insiders at the same company purchase shares within a 14-day window. Academic research identifies cluster buys as a stronger signal than individual insider purchases, suggesting broader insider confidence in the company's near-term prospects.
