Employee Trading (Policy)

There's more than one way to go with this one, tho more context is needed to know.

Looking up 'egenhandel' on it's own, there were many references identifying this term more as 'trading with yourself' in reference to illegal market manipulation. See http://www.fi.se/Folder-SE/Konsument/Fragor-och-svar/Spara/E... http://www.ekobrottsmyndigheten.se/press/nyheter/2012/12/ege... and http://www.svd.se/naringsliv/finansinspektionen-vill-stoppa-...

When you look up 'anställdas egenhandel', you find policy statements regarding specific trading restrictions for employees, not a discussion of their trading practices -- as in https://www.skagenfonder.se/Global/2.0_PDFs/Guidelines/inter... and https://www.sbab.se/download/18.573585f513cf362b85dc82/13619...

These restrictions are aimed in various ways at protecting from illegal trading activities and market manipulation being committed by the personnel of different kinds of companies. This latter context seems more likely in the limited context you've been able to give. As in this discussion -- http://www.tdadesignatedbrokerageservices.com/pdfs/TDA6848.p... There are other ways to spin this term such as 'Personal Securities Trading Policy' (at http://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/containers/fix013/701276/0... and many others.

See if this helps!
Note from asker:
Thanks for all the help. It was hard to choose here - I had no more context than I gave, which adds to difficulty.
