"for purposes of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended"
A provision of federal securities law that requires company insiders—directors, officers and large shareholders—to publicly report their stock holdings and trades and to surrender any “short-swing” profits from purchases and sales within a six-month window. It acts like a rule that forces leaders to announce their trades and prevents quick buy-sell windfalls, giving investors transparency into insider activity and reducing opportunities for unfair gain.
