Capital markets law attorney, please help me..

Hello. This is a Daeryun Law Firm capital markets law attorney.

The Capital Markets Act is a law enacted to maintain financial transaction order and protect investors, and strictly prohibits acts such as stock price manipulation, like the inquirer's act.

In this case, the punishment is imprisonment for at least 1 year, or a fine of 4 to 6 times the profit gained or loss avoided through the violation.

In addition, you bear liability for damages to victims who suffered harm due to stock price manipulation.

In cases of suspected violation of the Capital Markets Act, even simple involvement may be subject to criminal punishment.

Even if the act was performed under work-related instructions, if the situation was such that the illegality of the instructions could have been clearly recognized, liability may be acknowledged.

Therefore, it is important to closely review the inquirer's role, the situation at the time, and the specific details of the act.

Only by responding strategically through a capital markets law attorney from the early stages of the investigation can unnecessary criminal liability be avoided.

It is necessary to secure emails, messengers, internal report materials, etc. that can prove the contents of the superior's instructions, and statements must also be prepared consistently.

At this point, rather than judging or responding alone, we recommend consulting with an attorney specialized in Capital Markets Act cases.

Our firm's capital markets law attorneys will review and analyze the inquirer's case and prepare a defense strategy against punishment.
