摘要：

Using proprietary individualized trade and account data on block trades from the Shanghai Stock Exchange, we study how dealers intermediate large sales by corporate insiders. We find that dealers require larger discounts and liquidate their positions in the secondary market more quickly when the seller is an insider. Indirect evidence indicates that dealers acquire private information in the process of negotiating the block sale and use the information when the blocks are sold. The secondary market buyers of the shares from the insider blocks, which tend to decline in price, tend to be small retail investors.
