Answer(s): A

Which of the following will result in an insider trading prosecution?
Answer(s): D
A "Tippee" is any person who learns inside information from a corporate insider. A tippee can be held liable under SEC's section 10b and rule 10(b)-5 only if he knows or should know that the insider has behaved improperly and breached fiduciary duty in revealing the information. Otherwise, the tippee is not held responsible for insider trading. One exception to this rule is information about tender offers, in which tippee liability results automatically under SEC Rule 14e-3, even if the insider has not breached any fiduciary duty.Under the Misappropriation Theory of insider trading, a person who misappropriates inside information and trades or abets trading in it is committing securities fraud and can be so charged, even if the person is a complete corporate outsider. The Topical Study, "Insider Trading," is probably the most important (and the trickiest) section in the handbook and you can expect at least one question from it.
An AIMR member:
Answer(s): B
Standard I does not require a member to report the illegal activity to the appropriate regulatory authorities, though it may be prudent to do so in many cases if it is evident that the activity is illegal.
Mark Blazewhich, an analyst with an investment advisory firm, changed the recommendation on Zomega, Inc.'s stock from hold to sell 10 days ago. This recommendation was published in the firm's newsletter that came out two days after this announcement. Blazewhich has just given his broker instructions to liquidate Blazewhich's personal holdings of Zomega. Blazewhich has:
Because Blazewhich has allowed sufficient time for dissemination of the change in recommendation, he is free to carry out personal transactions. Also, since the recommendation is to sell the stock, there is no personal conflict in the situation. Note that it would be a violation of Standard IV (B.7) - Disclosure of Conflicts to Clients and Prospects - if the recommendation were to buy the stock and Crumpet had failed to reveal information about his personal holdings.
Which one of the following actions will not help to ensure the fair treatment of brokerage firm clients when a new investment recommendation is made?
Answer(s): C
This question deals with Standard IV (B.3), Fair Dealing. All the procedures listed will help members treat clients fairly, except distributing recommendations to institutional clients prior to individual accounts. This practice discriminates among clients based on size and class of assets and is a violation of Standard IV (B.3).
