IntegraFin Holdings Insider Transactions Over The Last Year
Over the last year, we can see that the biggest insider sale was by the Group Counsel, David Johnson, for UK£1.0m worth of shares, at about UK£3.68 per share. While insider selling is a negative, to us, it is more negative if the shares are sold at a lower price. The good news is that this large sale was at well above current price of UK£3.33. So it may not shed much light on insider confidence at current levels. David Johnson was the only individual insider to sell shares in the last twelve months.

This kind of significant ownership by insiders does generally increase the chance that the company is run in the interest of all shareholders.
