GIPS - confused by some questions - are they in the curriculum?

Hi everyone,

I have done a couple of mock exams from a well known prep provider.

I found some questions regarding ethics (GIPS) very difficult in that sense that I even didn’t know they were in the curriculum.

Let me explain: There was a few questions regading -->performance results of third-party advisors and evergreen fund (?!..). I found the solution in the curriculum, but in the “optional section”.

Has anyone encountered the same problem? I was persuaded that we didn’t have to know what are in these sections but now I’m confused since I found them in a mock exam (not a CFAI mock exam, though).

I first uploaded the CFAI curriculum book in March, and I verified on the CFAI website, I should have the latest version. Is there something I am missing?

Thanks in advance

I think that if you can list GIPS sections you are OK

i’m still confused but it’s noted, thanks
