You CAN accept the additional comp provided you disclose it to your employer and receive written permission.

Part of the reason you need written permission is that if there is an additional comp agreement your supervisor must ensure you are not violating both objectivity and fair dealing statutes by showing bias to one client in regard to trade/IPO allocations and the like.

I'm not disagreeing with that, NVC.

Accepting additional comp on its own does not imply that it's a violation. The OP's scenario is not a violation on its own.

By your logic it's a violation to make a trade. Why? Because the trader potentially used insider info. Or he traded for his account before his client's. Or he only bought a stick for a specific client when it was suitable for all. Context context.

ok lets all agree that:
1. must get written approval for both cases
2. a bit ambiguous with the context - that never happens on CFAI exam as we all know so no worries there ;)
3. BlueCollar can now stop studying

good luck all

Yes I agree. The most important point being #3.

Good luck to you too

I dont think I agree. We need to disclose the incentive clearly.

The pharase 'Few nights' is not ok. We need a real number here.

A few pages after my quote, there is a practice problem where the correct answer requires written consent from employer.

Crazy, inconsistent CFAI.

if you receive say a aspen condo apartment for a week for delivering good perf. for cleint A, you need written approval from employer, but do you have to disclose to other clients as well?
