LONDON, Feb 20 (Reuters) - A former Janus Henderson analyst used confidential information on companies including Daimler, Jet2 and THG to make nearly 1 million pounds ($1.3 million) with his sister and others, prosecutors told a London court on Thursday.

Redinel Korfuzi, 37, is accused of using information he accessed through his job as a research analyst at the asset manager to trade using accounts held by his three co-defendants.

He is charged with conspiracy to commit insider dealing and money laundering between January 2019 and March 2021 alongside his sister Oerta Korfuzi, 36.

The siblings are standing trial with Rogerio de Aquino, 63, and Dema Almeziad, 40, who prosecutors say acted as "secret 100 Private proxies" for the insider trading.

All four have pleaded not guilty and their trial at Southwark Crown Court began on Thursday, when prosecutors said the defendants made a profit of around 963,000 pounds in relation to 11 companies' shares.
