Purchases make up the whole of the open-market record (13 purchases, €20.3M). A purchase on the market is a deliberate choice to commit personal money, which is why it draws more attention than a grant. Outside the open market, there are 5 share grants.

In size, the median ticket on the buying side is €1.2M. 6 out of 13 purchases came within 30 days of a purchase by at least one other insider of the same company. When several insiders buy within a few weeks of each other, analysts speak of a cluster purchase.

The latest filing, published on 6 July 2020, reports a transaction of €328k in Portola Pharmaceuticals Inc. The last insider purchase was made public on 24 July 2019, 2,646 days ago.
