Which of the following is true about Standard III (B) - Duty to Employer?

Standard III (B) - Duty to Employer - does not preclude a member from entering into independent practice while still employed.

It does not prohibit a departing employee from making arrangements to enter independent practice prior to leaving current employment, as long as such preparations do not constitute a breach of loyalty toward the employer.
Standard III (D) - Disclosure of Additional Compensation Arrangements - requires members to provide complete disclosure to their employer about any additional compensation arrangements. In order to abide by this, you must:
Answer(s): B
Standard III (D) requires written notification to the employer. This includes any form of communication that can be documented.
Institutional Investments is a fund management firm that provides investment advice as well as investment management to large client accounts. I.I.'s senior portfolio manager, Richard Fineman's cousin, Alberto Onestone, runs a small brokerage firm. Fineman has directed all of his junior portfolio managers to execute their trades with Alberto. Alberto's fees are higher than those available from discount brokers but Alberto provides Fineman and his managers a wealth of investment tips that he hears on the street. This helps Fineman in producing a successful investment newsletter. This helps enhance I.I.'s reputation, attracting new clients and allowing lower fees on all the accounts. Since the client accounts benefit from this arrangement, Fineman's managers do not think the practice is unethical. The relationship between Fineman and Onestone is not explicitly disclosed to the clients. You are currently interviewing with them for the position of a portfolio analyst. As a CFA Level I candidate, they portray the above situation as a hypothetical case and ask you if thereare any violations of the AIMR code of Ethics that they have heard about. Your response should be which of the following?
Answer(s): D
By not revealing the relationship between Fineman and Onestone - which is clearly a source of conflict of interest - the managers of Institutional Investors are in violation of Standard IV (B.7) - Disclosure of Conflicts to Clients and Prospects. Further, while there is a symbiotic relationship between I.I. and Onestone to the extent that both the parties gain, the clients who pay higher brokerage lose. Even though the practice leads to lower fees, it is not clear that the clients get benefits worth the cost incurred on their accounts. Further, there is a clear sense of impropriety in the setup. Unless the excess brokerage directly benefits the client accounts, this case is a violation of Standard IV (B.1) - Fiduciary Duties.
"Prohibited transactions" are discussed in Standard IV (B.4), Priority of Transactions. Which of the following is NOT suggested as a prohibited transaction for investment personnel?
Answer(s): E
Under the compliance procedures for Standard IV (B.4), members and their firms should clearly define prohibited transactions so that employees completely understand their obligations to clients and their employer.Participation by investment personnel in equity or equity-based IPOs should be restricted. Members' firms should, for example, impose strict limits on investment personnel acquiring securities in private placements.Managers should not be prevented, however, from purchasing government issues, such as municipal bonds and/or other government securities.
A manager who pays a higher commission than would normally be paid to purchase the goods or services is said to be ________ services.
A manager who pays a higher commission than would normally be paid to purchase the goods or services is said to be paying up for services. This practice is a violation of fiduciary duties to the client. However, various countries' securities laws permit a manager to pay up for goods and services without violating the manager's fiduciary duty so long as the requirements of the law are followed.

admin guide (windows) respond to malicious causality chains. when the cortex xdr agent identifies a remote network connection that attempts to perform malicious activity—such as encrypting endpoint files—the agent can automatically block the ip address to close all existing communication and block new connections from this ip address to the endpoint. when cortex xdrblocks an ip address per endpoint, that address remains blocked throughout all agent profiles and policies, including any host-firewall policy rules. you can view the list of all blocked ip addresses per endpoint from the action center, as well as unblock them to re-enable communication as appropriate. this module is supported with cortex xdr agent 7.3.0 and later. select the action mode to take when the cortex xdr agent detects remote malicious causality chains: enabled (default)—terminate connection and block ip address of the remote connection. disabled—do not block remote ip addresses. to allow specific and known s
