restrictions on personal investments for quant researchers?

Hi, are there typically any restrictions on personal investments for quant researchers? Applying soon so taking this into consideration.

Do they typically require you to report all your transactions? Or perhaps divest existing investments and buy a tracker so you can't choose the stocks?
