Ensuring Fair Dealing in Investment Recommendations

Easy Cfa Institute Code And Standards Duties - Fair Dealing

As a financial analyst, you are preparing to recommend a specific investment to your clients. You have just discovered that a colleague within your firm also plans to recommend the same investment to his clients on the same day. In accordance with the CFA Institute's Code of Ethics and Standards of Professional Conduct, how should you proceed to ensure fair dealing?

You should inform your colleague and delay your recommendation until after his clients have received it to avoid any market impact.

You can proceed with your recommendation without any adjustments since both recommendations are independent.

You should first check if your clients have a better understanding of the investment before recommending it.
