Looking at Regal Partners Holdings Limited's (HKG:1575 ) insider transactions over the last year, we can see that insiders were net buyers. That is, there were more number of shares purchased by insiders than there were sold.
Although we don't think shareholders should simply follow insider transactions, logic dictates you should pay some attention to whether insiders are buying or selling shares.
Over the last year, we can see that the biggest insider purchase was by insider Shu Yui Wong for HK$14m worth of shares, at about HK$0.051 per share. That implies that an insider found the current price of HK$0.052 per share to be enticing. While their view may have changed since the purchase was made, this does at least suggest they have had confidence in the company's future. If someone buys shares at well below current prices, it's a good sign on balance, but keep in mind they may no longer see value. The good news for Regal Partners Holdings share holders is that an insider was buying at near the current price. The only individual insider to buy over the last year was Shu Yui Wong.
