Latham has been following a publicly traded oil firm, Techron Oil. Recently, he read a review about the oil fields in Venezuela, to the effect that the actual oil content of the fields across the country might be as much as 35% higher than previously estimated. Techron owns sizable properties in Venezuela and Latham has concluded that the research report implies that Techron might have as much as a million gallons a day in excess capacity that has not been factored into the stock price.

Answer(s): B
Since the review was publicly available, Latham has not violated Standard V (A) - Prohibition against use of Material, Non-Public Information. Also, because he properly attributed his original source, he has not plagiarized according to Standard II (C). However, by not carrying out an independent study to verify that his conclusions were indeed warranted, he violated Standard IV (A.1) - Reasonable Basis and Representations.Note that he has not confused fact with opinion and therefore not violated Standard IV (A.2) - Research Reports.
Which of the following is NOT a violation of Standard III (B) - Duty to Employer?
Answer(s): C
Standard III (B) prohibits an employee from going into a competitive business while currently employed without obtaining written permission. However, this applies only if the independent practice is for remuneration. Strictly volunteer activities (such as helping low-income people with free financial advice) which cannot be construed as being done for potential compensation do not constitute a violation of the standard even if they result in some loss of business to the current employer. However, the code is not explicit on this point. Obviously, "free tax assistance" to high-income people will never be considered a volunteer activity.
