Regarding her conversation with DalTex’s client, which option should Kercheval most likely choose to prevent violating CFA Institute Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct?

选项：

A.Option 1

B.Option 2

C.Option 3

解释：

1. Incorrect. Option 1 would not prevent Kercheval from violating CFA Institute Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct. Option 1 present a conflict with Standard IV(A), Loyalty. Standard IV(A) states in matters related to their employment, CFA Institute members and CFA candidates must act for the benefit of their employer and not deprive their employer of the advantage of their skills and abilities, divulge confidential information, or otherwise cause harm to their employer. Passing the information along to Duffy potentially could harm her current employer if the client were to move their assets to Duffy’s new firm.

2. Incorrect. Option 2 would not prevent Kercheval from violating CFA Institute Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct. Option 2 presents a conflict with Standard III(A), Loyalty, Prudence, and Care. Standard III(A) states CFA Institute members and CFA candidates must act for the benefit of their clients and place their clients’ interest before their employer’s or their own interests. Therefore, her first duty is to her client. Doing nothing until she joined Victory would conflict with her duty to her client who asked her to pass along the information. Therefore, Option 3 is her best course of action.

3. Correct. Option 3, “Give the client the name of Duffy’s new firm,” most likely will prevent Kercheval from violating CFA Institute Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct. This action allows her to place the responsibility of the client talking with Duffy in the hands of the client. Option 1, “Call Duffy and give her a recount of the conversation,” and Option 2, “Do nothing until she joins Victory then pass on the card to Duffy,” potentially could result in Kercheval violating CFA Institute Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct. A conflict exists between Kercheval’s duties to her current employer and her duties to her client. Option 1 present a conflict with Standard IV(A), Loyalty. Standard IV(A) states in matters related to their employment, CFA Institute members and CFA candidates must act for the benefit of their employer and not deprive their employer of the advantage of their skills and abilities, divulge confidential information, or otherwise cause harm to their employer. Passing the information along to Duffy potentially could harm her current employer if the client were to move their assets to Duffy’s new firm. Option 2 presents a conflict with Standard III(A), Loyalty, Prudence, and Care. Standard III(A) states CFA Institute members and CFA candidates must act for the benefit of their clients and place their clients’ interest before their employer’s or their own interests. Therefore, her first duty is to her client. Doing nothing until she joined Victory would conflict with her duty to her client who asked her to pass along the information. Therefore, Option 3 is her best course of action.
