Ethics / ROS

2 distinct questions:

  1. Could a firm adopt and comply with the Code & Standards while not adhering to the CFAI ROS? And conversely?

  2. Can individuals adopt the CFA Institute ROS? Or is it only for firms?

Thanks

Good question. I think that CFAI encourages the adoption of CFAI ROS.

I think the CFAI ROS are in the context of a firm, both the firm and research analysts have duties.

No.

The Code and Standards apply to covered persons – candidates, charterholders, members of CFA Institute – not to firms.

The ROS applies only to firms, not to individuals.

Great, thanks.

D’accord.

You’re getting fancy on us. wink
