  3. None of these answers
  4. IV (A.2)

Monserrat Troy is a portfolio analyst at Merryl Flynch Inc., a leading investment bank. Merryl's corporate policy prohibits its employees from trading in IPOs even if they are not being underwritten by Merryl. Recently, a fast- growing internet firm, Netblaze, announced that it was going public. Monserrat's friend, Victor, told her that he could get her bid in for a few shares of the IPO. The size of the deal was very small, amounting to less than a couple of thousand dollars. Monserrat went ahead and bought the shares but did not think it was necessary to inform her supervisor about it. She:

  1. violated Standard II (B) - Professional Misconduct - by violating company policy.
  2. did not violate the AIMR code of conduct even though she violated the company policy since the size of her transaction was extremely small.
  3. violated Standard III (B) - Duty to Employer - by violating company policy.
  4. violated Standard III (C) - Disclosure of Conflicts to Employer - by violating company policy.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Merryl's policy is designed to prevent any conflicts or even appearances of conflicts of interest when its employees trade in capital markets. If Monserrat wants to trade in a particular IPO, she needs to obtain special permission from Merryl's Compliance department (and such permission may or may not be granted by Compliance). Without such an exception, Monserrat's behavior is a violation of Standard III(C) - Disclosure of Conflicts to Employer. Note that Standards II (B) and III (B) do not apply to this situation.

  1. AIMR Standards for Calculation of Returns
  2. AIMR Standards of Practice
  3. AIMR Performance Presentation Standards
  4. AIMR Performance and Calculation Investment Board

When an investment manager's client instructs the manager to use the client's brokerage to purchase goods or services for the client, this is known as:

  1. horizontal brokerage and does not violate any fiduciary duty.
  2. horizontal brokerage and violates the manager's fiduciary duty.
  3. directed brokerage and does not violate any fiduciary duty.
  4. straight brokerage and does not violate any fiduciary duty.
  5. straight brokerage and violates the manager's fiduciary duty.
  6. directed brokerage and violates the manager's fiduciary duty.

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

When an investment manager's client instructs the manager to use the client's brokerage to purchase goods or services for the client, this is known as directed brokerage. Because brokerage is an asset of the client and the brokerage is used to benefit that client, not the manager, such practice does not violate fiduciary duty.



If the use of leverage is ________, the performance presented must include the effects of the leverage.

  1. mandatory
  2. nondiscretionary

question 8 - can cloudtrail be used for storing jobs? based on aws - aws cloudtrail is used for governance, compliance and investigating api usage across all of our aws accounts. every action that is taken by a user or script is an api call so this is logged to [aws] cloudtrail. something seems incorrect here.
