disposals affecting the bank's portfolio

"gegen" is not properly used in this context, it just means "relating to" (the banks security holdings / orders from customers)

trades against positions held by the bank

Your assumption was correct - I just wouldn't use "portfolio" here, as this refers to any position held by the bank.

The purpose of this restriction is to prevent employees who have control over the bank's positions (usually traders) to give themselves (or friends/colleagues) preferential prices for their personal trades.
Note from asker:
thank you Ralf - also extremely useful
