A former investment banker and his wife, who were convicted and sentenced to prison time for insider trading, have now also been ordered to pay back all of their trading profits — even money they weren’t convicted of obtaining illegally, British regulators said Monday.

The UK’s Financial Services Authority (FSA), which brought the insider dealing case against former investment banker, Christian Littlewood, and his wife, Angie Littlewood, announced that Southwark Crown Court made confiscation orders of £1,534,000 ($2.4 million) against the couple. They were each ordered to pay £767,000 ($1.2 million).

Back in October 2010, Christian Littlewood, a former senior investment banker, his wife, and a family friend, Helmy Omar Sa’aid, pled guilty to eight counts of insider dealing related to trading in a number of different London Stock Exchange and AIM listed shares between 2000 and 2008. Littlewood was sentenced to three years and four months in custody; his wife was sentenced to 12 months, but that sentence was suspended for two years; and, Sa’aid was sentenced to two years. The Littlewoods were also banned from securities markets.

Their initial conviction found they made a total profit of £590,000 from their insider dealing, however the confiscation regime allows the court to assume that the proceeds of other trading that took place within the same period represent the proceeds of crime. Including a previous order of £640,000 against Sa’aid, the total amount confiscated in this case now totals £2,174,000.

The confiscation order will be paid out of assets that were frozen by the court at the time of their arrest. If for any reason the sums are not paid within six months, the Littlewoods will be liable to serve an extra three years in prison.

“Insider dealers are motivated by greed and a belief that they can make easy money at the expense of others. A key part of our strategy is to ensure that those who are convicted of insider dealing do not keep their ill-gotten gains,” said Tracey McDermott, director of enforcement and financial crime. “As a result of their actions the Littlewoods have not only received custodial sentences and seen their reputations and future careers destroyed they have also paid a sum in confiscation significantly greater than the profit from the indicted trading alone.”

The Littlewoods were also ordered to pay a costs order of £33,000 each to the FSA.
