Perella Weinberg Banker Accused of Insider Trading

After firing its head of restructuring and four other bankers, PWP is back in the news. Apparently, a PWP banker was tipping his father about the pending healthcare M&A transactions, "that allegedly reaped more than $1 million in illicit profit -- and helped pay for his wedding."

I understand that although the firm itself is not involved, the conflict-free advisory is the biggest selling proposition of EBs. To what extent will such incidents affect the reputation of PWP? Any thoughts?

Will it really have a huge effect? If a banker want's to insider trade, there's really nothing PWP can do to stop him/her.
