Abstract :Asymmetric information causes problems in the functioning of the capital markets. Insider Trading Crime is a market disruptive action that allows certain individuals or groups to gain an unfair advantage by using the specific information only they have, which shakes the trust of investors in the market and institutions. For this reason, while states are making various legal arrangements to struggle with that issue, international organizations are also trying to gain a broader collaboration opportunity for an “Insider Trading Clean” financial market. In the study, qualitative research was conducted on the profiles of those who committed the crime of Insider Trading, which is one of the asymmetric information problems. Data was obtained from Capital Markets Board bulletins, newspapers, and other media. Thus, it is aimed to draw a profile for the insider trading perpetrators.
