Q15. Futura Investments Co. decides to diversify its current portfolio with stocks from three companies in a new segment of the        biotechnology industry. William Burgin, CFA, is an analyst at Futura and had previously bought shares of the same three companies for his own portfolio, well before his employer started researching them. Burgin has already disclosed the composition of his personal portfolio to Futura Investments, to be in compliance with the Code & the Standards. Which of the following actions should Burgin take?

A)      Diversify his personal portfolio so, in this way, these stocks will no longer represent a substantial portion of the portfolio.

B)      Hire a full discretionary power or blind trust manager for his portfolio.

C)      Open an account that will be managed by someone else but will allow him to maintain his investment preferences.

Correct answer is  B)

Burgin followed Standard VI(A) and informed his employer about the potential conflict of interest. He needs to follow the CFA Institute Standards in the best interest of his employer. To prevent any future problems with conflict of interest, his best option is to discontinue the active management of his personal portfolio and use a blind trust.

Q17. Kenny Barrett, CFA, is working in the Australian office of American Investments Co. From an informal conversation, Barrett learns that the company’s most recent investment report was based on misappropriated information. No one at the Australian office expresses concern, however, because there has been no breach of Australian law. Barrett should:

A)      do nothing because the branch is outside of U.S. jurisdiction.

B)      disassociate himself from the case with a written report to his supervisor.

C)      seek advice from company counsel to determine appropriate action.

Correct answer is C)

Kenny’s best choice is to seek the company counsel’s advice. If Kenny does nothing, he is breaching Standard I(A) Knowledge of the Law. Disassociation is not enough.
