The statement is True. A corporate insider who passes material nonpublic information as a gift to a relative satisfies the legal criteria for tipper liability under insider trading regulations, even without personal trading or direct cash payment.
Under federal securities laws, a tipper is liable for insider trading whenever material nonpublic information is improperly disclosed for a personal benefit. Legally, conferring a gift of confidential market-sensitive information to a family member or friend satisfies this personal benefit requirement, even if the tipper never trades or receives money.
