1. insidernoun

   an officer of a corporation or others who have access to private information about the corporation's operations, especially information relating to profitability. An insider is forbidden by U. S. securities laws to trade stock in publicly owned corporations based on the private information. The definition of insider for the purpose of securities law has changed in the late 29th century to become more inclusive, whereas it initially was applied only to officers of a corporation.

1. Insider

   An insider is a member of any group of people of limited number and generally restricted access. The term is used in the context of secret, privileged, hidden or otherwise esoteric information or knowledge: an insider is a "member of the gang" and as such knows things only people in the gang know. In our complicated and information-rich world, the concept of insider knowledge is popular and pervasive, as a source of direct and useful guidance. In a given situation, an insider is contrasted with an outside expert: the expert can provide an in-depth theoretical analysis that should lead to a practical opinion, while an insider has firsthand, material knowledge. Insider information may be thought of as more accurate and valuable than expert opinion.
