B)   a suitable reaction, and he is in compliance with the Code and Standards.

C)   a violation of the Code and Standards since he is required not to knowingly participate or assist in such an act.

Correct answer is C)

McDowell, by his action in taking the documentation to his supervisor, is knowingly participating in and/or assisting in an illegal act. This is clearly prohibited under Standard I(A), and he is in violation of the Standard.

Q10. According to the CFA Institute Standards of Professional Conduct, Standard I(A), Knowledge of the Law, members shall not knowingly participate or assist in any violations of laws, rules, or regulations. An analyst:

A)   is held responsible for participating in illegal acts when the law is evident to anyone knowing the law and is held responsible for violations by others when the analyst is unaware of the facts giving rise to the violation.

B)   is held responsible for participating in illegal acts when the law is evident to anyone knowing the law and can participate in a violation by having knowledge of the violation and taking no action to stop it or disassociate from it.

C)   must report all legal violations to the proper regulatory commission and is held responsible for participating in illegal acts when the law is evident to anyone knowing the law.

Correct answer is B)

If you suspect someone is planning or engaging in illegal activities, you should:

1.      Determine the legality of the activities. Consult your supervisor and legal counsel.

2.      Take appropriate action. Disassociate, attempt to persuade the perpetrator to stop. CFA Institute does not require you to report them to the authorities, but the law might.

Q11. Which of the following statements about the responsibilities of CFA charterholders is TRUE? CFA charterholders:

A)   are only obligated to comply with securities laws in the U.S.

B)   must comply with the laws and rules governing their profession or must not engage in any individual behavior that reflects adversely on the entire profession.

C)   must comply with the laws and rules governing their profession and must not engage in any individual behavior that reflects adversely on the entire profession.

Correct answer is C)

CFA charterholders must comply with the laws and rules governing their profession and must not engage in any individual behavior that reflects adversely on the entire profession. While they should act honorably and follow U.S. securities laws, they are obligated to more than that, as set forth in the Code and Standards.
