Executive malfeasance
Insider trading by CP All executives occurred in 2013, according to a statement by Thailand's Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on 2 December 2015. Korsak Chairasmisak, the vice chairman of CP All, at that time was its CEO.[7] He bought over 118,000 shares of Siam Makro (the company is now known as CP Axtra), a cash-and-carry chain, over a 12-day period ending on 22 April 2013. The following day, CP All announced a tender offer for Siam Makro shares at 15 percent above the 22 April close. The regulator found that Korsak had prior knowledge of the deal and imposed a fine of over 30 million baht (US$833,000).[8] Three executives also involved were fined 3.1 million baht.[9] No criminal charges were brought. CP All's audit committee said they had decided it was "appropriate for the individuals to continue" their employment.[10] As justification, the statement cited their prior behavior and performance and their "exceptional skills and experience, which would be difficult to replace".[11]
