We Put Integrity in Action When...
WE HANDLE ALL COMPANY INFORMATION THE RIGHT WAY
Protecting inside information is important to establishing trust with one another, our stakeholders and the public at large.
- We do not use “material” inside information about Caterpillar for personal gain, provide it to others or use it to trade in Caterpillar securities.
- We do not trade in the securities of a third party (including dealers, suppliers, customers or competitors) if we possess their material inside information, nor do we advise others to do so.
- We are all responsible for following Caterpillar's insider trading policy. This includes our families and others with access to inside information.
Inside information is non-public company information — such as financial data, technical materials or future plans — that could have significant value to others. It may be considered material if an investor would consider it important when making an investment decision, and it must be kept strictly confidential.
