There is a point in the article her husband is a heavy trader. When I read that, my first thought was unless they ban spouses from trading as well, it seems like that's what will happen since the majority are married.

If not the husband, then the kids. If not the kids, then the cousins. If not the family, then the lawyers. etc etc etc.

Just like banning trading, this will be circumvented by family/business proxies doing the trades. Including potential family proxies, in the public accounting, would probably be the most effective move to motivate ethical behavior. At least put some risk in the form of the relationship to the business partners, given the vast amounts of money flowing.
