Apple Restricts Employee Participation in Prediction Markets, Prohibiting Betting Using Company Insider Information BlockBeats reports that on November 4th, Apple filed its annual report with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), updating its insider trading policy and listing prediction market trading as a separate prohibited activity. Apple requires employees not to use confidential Apple information obtained in the course of their work to place bets or trade on prediction market platforms such as Polymarket, even if such actions do not constitute insider trading or securities trading under applicable law; this still violates company policy.
