What is alleged to have happened
The Australian Securities and Investments Commission announced the sentence on November 16, 2021 as release 21-305MR.
Campbell, an executive of Healthe Care, learned around October 19, 2016 of an in-principle deal for Healthe Care to buy a substantial stake in Pulse, knew the information was not public and bought Pulse shares before it was announced.
The fine is recorded as A$10,000; the pecuniary penalty order of A$31,996 represents his profit. The record previously showed the matter with no outcome.
