Ethics Q from Schweser

John Johnson, portfolio manager at Sunshine Investments, has passed all three levels of the CFA? Program and has completed his work experience requirements. He expects to receive his charter in the near future. He includes the following statement in his firm’s brochure: “Johnson has passed all three levels of the exam and has completed the required work experience for the CFA Charter. He is eligible for the CFA Charter and expects to receive the charter in the near future. Over the years, he has demonstrated a superior performance and his CFA Charter will be rightfully awarded.” Johnson has:
A) violated CFA Institute Standards of Professional Conduct because he advertised the CFA Charter before actually obtaining it.
B) violated CFA Institute Standards of Professional Conduct because he implied superior performance that would be linked to the CFA Charter.
C) not violated CFA Institute Standards of Professional Conduct because he met all disclosure requirements.
