问题如下:
Smith is a financial analyst with XYZ Brokerage Firm. She is preparing a purchase recommendation on JNI Corporation. Which of the following situations is most likely to represent a conflict of interest for Smith that would have to be disclosed?
选项:
A.Smith frequently purchases items produced by JNI.
B.XYZ holds for its own account a substantial common stock position in JNI.
C.Smith’s brother-in-law is a supplier to JNI.
解释:
B is correct.
This question involves Standard VI(A) –Disclosure of Conflicts—specifically, the holdings of an analyst’s employer in company stock. Answers A and C do not describe conflicts of interest that Smith would have to disclose. Answer A describes the use of a firm’s products, which would not be a required disclosure. In answer C, the relationship between the analyst and the company through a relative is so tangential that it does not create a conflict of interest necessitating disclosure.
和有问必答里另一个同学提到的一样,我也是在BC之间犹豫最后选择了C 因为觉得题目更针对问的是conflict of 这个分析师。
记得老师之前上课也有提到说 个人关系可能产生conflict的 能disclose就dislose
