Managing Conflicts of Interest in Portfolio Management

As a portfolio manager at Quantum Investments, Angela has cultivated a strong client base over the past five years. One of her closest clients, Mr. Lewis, has asked her to invest a portion of his portfolio in a new venture capital fund that she recently learned about from an industry conference. Angela believes the fund has significant potential returns but also understands it could present a conflict of interest because her firm owns a share of that fund.

Angela contemplates discussing the investment with Mr. Lewis but is unsure how to manage the potential conflict of interest while also adhering to her professional responsibilities to her employer.

Which of the following actions would best align with Angela's professional responsibilities to her employer while maintaining ethical standards?
